Its a 2006 Chev uplander. Local mechanic pulled code C0131. Both traction control and abs lights and messages on with service stability message. I was told the part that needs to be replaced costs like $1200. Is there anything else that i could try to fix on my own...

    Basically whenever i start up my car and start to drive witin seconds i get the abs/tc lights as well as messages in addition i get stability message.

    I originally started with the traction control light on and off in the begining and it would be a hit and miss with the lights coming on once and a while, but now they are on all the time.

    I asked what the part name was but my mechanic said he had to look it up. Basically all he told me it controls the pressure valve ?

It's a dtc for the pressure circuit inside the ABS module, serviced only as a module. Dealer list price on the part is 600$ and change. Labor could be 2-5 hours depending onnthe condition of the rest of your brake components (bleeder screws and lines). And no, there is no way around it that has been found yet.

Fix what?

What was diagnosed as a problem?

What costs $1200 & why is that necessary?

The code is MFG,don't know what it is.

You can fix anything, if you know what if anything
has to be replaced.

My compressor quit working on my 2006 chevy uplander but before i replace the compressor its self is there something simple i can check first also, on my info center the abs, traction control, &...

Anything a/c related is best left to a mechanic. You prob have a freon leak somewhere. Try adding a can or 2 to see if that works.
As far as the other lights, they prob just need their recommended servicing.
