99 Grand Am, Trac Off, Abs light and engine code P1665 purge valve P1676 vent
1999 Pontiac Grand Am Coupe Se
V6 3.4l
130,000 miles
Trac off light on dash when car is started,
Abs light on dash when car is started
Code P1665 purge valve
Code P1676 vent valve
When the car is started the trac of light and abs light come on the dash and stay on, the car is still in park at this time.
Also I have scanned the car for codes and the two codes are P1665 and P1676. Any help with troubleshooting this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

it seems odd to have codes for both the purge and vent solenoids...the common thing is probably power. have you checked fuses yet? the trac off light is on because the ABS is not operating. perhaps they are all related...you need more than a code scanner to retrieve the specific codes for the traction control system and ABS. code scanners just do OBD II and only what the federal gov't says the car makers have to share...most of them reserve a bunch of proprietary stuff that you need a real scanner for.
