I would check to see if the power wire to your alternator is still connected also check the connector plug that goes to the alternator to see if any of the I think three wires are still connected and not broken!

Alternator looks OK....all wires and ground hooked up fine.
On the way to work this morning...same wierd stuff....Air Bag light flashing twice...like its some sort of code?.
I also noticed that my ABS light stays on now.
The Climate Control display will also "flash" on then off if Im idling....then go off again.
Is it fuses?....And if its the Climate Control unit....why are the ABS lights and AirBag light flashing?
I know that when my alternator went out before I changed it I would have absolutely no power....EVERYTHING went dead as I was driving.

Go have your charging system tested.

Your syptoms are of low/inconsistent voltage.

My bet would be either a weak battery or a weak alternator.

Or if you have replaced your battery terminals, you may want to check their connections as well. Make sure that the wire is tightly crimped where it connects to the new terminal. But ditto what Steve said. Mine did this same thing when my alternator died.

OK....
I just replaced battery today.
Driving down the road from ORileys....and ..damn
same ***** again!!!
ABS light on....air bag light blinking.....and no Climate Control display or funtion.
I do notice that when I came to a stop sign/light,.......the Climate Control comes on....I get full blast air like normal...then when I speed up...it shuts off!
The O Rileys guy checked the system charging...alternator is OK.Wires looked tight and good shape.
Do I run the codes?
Is it a short?
