Default NEED HELP: ABS and Traction Control Lights

Recently when I start my car, I don't have any warning lights, but as I drive, sometimes it feels like when I hit a bump, my SERVICE ABS and SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM lights come on. They show up in the digital display, and also light up on my dashboard next to the speedometer. When these lights come on, it turns off my traction control system. Has anyone experienced this, and how do I service it/ get those lights to go away for good!

Thanks,
Jeff

You MUST read and post the DTCs using the on board DTC reading routine. There TONs of reasons that the system errored out!

Reading the DTCs will help point to the cause of your woes. MAKE SURE that you read the DTCs for that system as soon as the messages appears AND BEFORE you turn the ignition OFF!!

Some of the DTCs that can pop up clear them selves after each ignition cycle.

Please post the DTCs so we can help you resolve the issue.
