Question new LS400 owner

Hey Club, great forum. I recently brought a 94 LS400 with 81k, the car looks great and is smooth. The person I brought the car from took great car of it, but I do have some problems. My trac control lights stays on, the previous owner said that it came on and stayed on after he took it to emisson to get tested. ( they put the car on something similar to a dyno) I have tried to do a search, but the threads I've come across refer to the trac light sometimes coming on, or in combination with the engine light. Which is not the case in my car, the light stays on, and the traction control doesn't work at all. My second concern is that the radio doesn't appear to have any bass. I do have the standard pioneer radio in the car, but never the less it seems to be sub par when it comes to a complete sound in this class of vehicle. I had an acura LS legend coupe, and its stero sound was much more complete. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

Bass issue - Check your subwoofer... its the big speaker next to the 3rd break light. Check your connections.

There has been a lot of talk about this, use the search function, its a fairly common issue with the early model LS's.
