Default Several lights on the dash light up but no error I can see! help.

This has happened three times now so I need some help. When I turn the car on I get the long high pitched beep, followed by the following lights; traction control, ABS, and the ebrake (flashing). The ebrake is not engaged.

Any ideas on what that would be?

My traction control has indicated its not on a few times.

Thanks

Likely something in the brake system - need to check codes for ABS module, fluid level, sensor connections down by the wheel. Could be some junk stuck in the sensor ring.

It's going in for a major service soon I will get them to check it out. Thanks for the reply.

If anyone else has an idea what these lights could be please post!

Has the car been in an accident? Usually its a misscommunication or wiring problem to the ABS and TC module.

Scheduled in for a major service now. Talked to mechanic and he said something along the lines of what 1move said. Hope that's all it is!
