Dash Lights staying on Please Help!

I just started my car and the Brake, Slip and VDC off lights are all on and staying on. I tried restarting the car and nothing. Then I tried resetting the computer and nothing. Anyone have this happen before? What should I do?

Did you mess around with anything in the engine bay? If not, I would take to the dealer.

Good luck.

If those lights are on continuously, it means that the ABS and VDC are not working - be careful if you do drive.

People have reported this after doing burnouts or drifting. If you haven't been doing anything like that., I would take it to the dealer.

This thread leads you to another thread (Merlin's) in Mods and Tech Forum HERE which explains your problem.
Your dealer should be familiar with this issue.

It's a brake sensor recall...mine just started up again last week for the second time since I've had the car...just take it in and the dealer will take care of it.

The brake lights seem to be working fine. Does this rule out the brake sensor?

I replied to your email...

Also...my guy at Infiniti also told me to check the brake fluid level as this has also been known to cause the brake and slip lights to come on...like I said...mine started again last week and I checked and my brake fluid level is fine...so it must be my sensor again. I'm taking it in Wed.

Re: Dash Lights staying on Please Help!

Washed the car yesterday and noticed that one of the wheels was filthy, so I checked my brake fluid level and sure enough it was nearly empty. Turns out I must have loosened up the brake line when I installed the spacers. I tightened up the bolt and added fluid and wallah the lights went off.
Thanks for your help everyone!
