Question Electrical Interference?

Today my 2000 TL's TCS light came for the third time in five months. Each time I was driving near 35th Ave and Bell Road in Phoenix. Turning off the igniton and restarting turns the TCS light off. Is it possible a local electrical emission is scrambling my TL's computer?

Not today. Twice before the check engine light came on and stayed on after I rebooted. That's how I found out Bell Acura wanted $685 for a new throttle body to "possibly" fix the problem -- which figure inspired me to wait and see.
Today I saw. I'd like to dare a fellow 00 TL owner to drive by 35th & Bell.

Put your AM radio on a channel between stations and drive past it. Just about any strong RF will affect it.
