ok i got a problem..
just to do a brief outline on what happen today..
Washed/cleaned car
drove off the drive way to get most of the left over watever outta my car/rims. then dried watevers left + 303 protectant my tires.
drove up driveway, car made a clunk.. then my VSC + VSCoff + CEL llight went on.. i cant gas my car cant accelerate nothing.. i had to idle my way up n into my garage.. thought it might be the balljoints cuz it was a clunk.. checked the joints and its all good. reset the car (remove black terminal) and it removed the CEL and the other lights so i thought i fixed it.. turned on the car just right now n the lights are on + i cant gas it..
the peddle feels like: Car is on and running however the gas peddle feels like the car is off and the key is out.. meaning soft the first 70% and hard the last 30%.
how do i read CEL codes using my AC?? also how do i fix this =/

ok so i searched the forums n i guess it could either be the O2 sensor.. or the ABS sensor or wheel??
i checked the O2 sensor by lookin under the car and it looks fine.. dont think it hit the ground or not..
anyways i drove the car around and the car feels fine.. when im on full boost the car pulls fine.. no misfires or anything. The braking feels fine as well.
also the gas peddle feel went back to normal.. strange.

ill wait till the lights pop up again, n when they do ill drive to autozone to use the obdii scanner..
