The speedo is a plug on the top of the diff. Check to make sure it's seated fully. Not sure about the other 2 items.

I have been having the same problem for over 6 months now. I took my engine out, rebuilt it and put it back and my traction, stability control and anti brake are on all the time. I cant turn off stability control or go into competitive mode because of those lights being on all the time. not sure what to check or what to do....

hmmmm interesting. I will look into it. my car is at the shop currently. waiting for my transmission mounts to get here and couple minor things. it should be back n the road hopefully end of next week. I will take it to the dealership and look into it. I hope its just that. I did a little reading here and some were saying to check the grounds but I am not really sure....
