Instrument panel going crazy!

Ok so I was driving down the road and hit a bump and the LOW TRAC light came on for a little, and it usually goes off after about 5 seconds. Well it stayed on, then my BRAKE light came on as well as my TCS OFF light, and my ABS INOP light.... So I pull off at the next street and turn the car off, wait a minute and turn it back on, it was fine after that, but I am wondering what could have caused that???

I think cars are alott like computers ... they tend to do what they want sometimes ... Ive never had that happen to me .. maybe she was sensing something up the road and this kept you out of harms way ... I belive in " Everything happens for a reason" Code ... just my two cents ...

I'd check the traction control sensors at the wheels to make sure they're plugged in tight.

figured it out, it was the foglamp wire in front of the radiator. There is a connection there that can get corroded. I just cut ot and used a wire connector and BAM no more lights.
