DSC, ADS and TC Warning Messages ??

All three warning messages came on at once. Any best guesses what might be the cause? Must all be related to a single cause, otherwise it would be a hell of a coincidence.

Possible, I suppose, but this was while I was driving. And besides, the car is always on a maintainer, so it is unlikely a low batt. Well, just need to add these to the SRS light I already have...

tsang002 is infamous around these parts
After driving my car for 30 min in light traffic for 15 miles, I turned it off and turned it back on stopping to pick up my mail. When turned on the DSC light came on and said DSC needs to be serviced. I turned off the engine and waited 5 min and turned it back on and the light went away.

These cars are pretty sensitive, I'm thinking it is the Ambient Temp Sensor, I hope... Any clues anybody!

I probably should have reported that on my next drive, all the warning lights went away and haven't been back since. When they did come on, I was moving very slowly for some minutes in traffic, so maybe it was ambient temp under the hood...

Only real causes known for the DSC/ABS lights are related to corroded front ABS sensor harness connectors at the hub and/or low voltage battery..not going to explain battery testing, LOL got YouTube for that...but for the harness issue, 2 wires going into the front ABS connector, give both wires a slight pull and see if there loose/broken ..should be secured in place...if a wire is broken, you found the problem..check both front wheels
