This is my first Corvette and i am trying to keep my dash clean. The Car only has 73,000 miles on it. If you can help or have any suggestions please send them my way.

CODES
c1226, c1233, b0361, b2252, b2284, u1064, b2283, b2285
u1064, b2187, b0851, u1255, u1064, u1016, u1096, c2100
c2105, c2110, c2115
The C1226 and C1233 codes are both faults of the RF wheel speed sensor, and are what's triggering your dash lights on.

I'd start by removing the wheel, unplugging and inspecting the sensor wire connector at the RF hub, they are known to corrode and/or loosen and cause this.
It's unlikely the sensor itself is bad, but I believe it's function can be tested with a multimeter. You have to replace the hub assembly if it is bad.
The other most common cause is the EBTCM module itself, which unfortunately, I believe is an obsolete and impossible to find part for a '98.

The four C21xx codes are the tire pressure sensor codes, unrelated to the ABS warning problem.
