    hello everyone: I haven't posted on here in a while just had no problems. I have a 2002 classic with 150,000 miles. Today while driving on the freeway at 65 a red light came on in the nav display and the dash with the exclamation point. Also the brake light is illuminated. Complete loss of power. I had it towed and the gas engine starts right up but it will only move forward slowly also will not back up at all. All mlights are still on the small battery is new last year. Any ideas on what it may be?:( I love the car but do not want to put thousands into it. Thanks in advance for any help. Wayne

    You're going to have to have the codes read before I could even guess

    Along with the DTCs, please post as much detail as you can about the car's previous service history.
