So today on the way home from work I got a service engine light. At the time it happened my low fuel warning had jusst come on with ~47 miles left to go. I was turning right at aproxmately 25mph. All of the sudden I lost forward momentum, the traction control and SEL lights came on and I think SRM may have turned off. The car didn't die but didn't wan't to build RPM's either.

I pulled over, and oddly the traction control light stayed on. I turned off the car and checked for any obvious issues and didn't see any. It started up first thing and I went and got gas thinking it could have been fuel starvation.

It drove home fine although I was very easy on her. When I got home I pulled up the SEL code via the ON / Gas pedal trick. I beleive it indicated P0605. I went ahead and cleard it and have since driven about 20 miles normally without further issue.

Can anyone shed any light on what this SEL was, what triggered it and any steps / precautions I should take?

Thanks,
Matt
