Default Brake, ABS INOP, TRAC off

Don't know if this is the right section. My Brake, ABS, and TRAC light all comes on at one time intermediately. Some days it will not come on(usually when it is cold out side) and some times it comes on and then goes off for a while and then comes back on again. I have bleed the brakes, replaced rotors and brake pads. I really don't know what could cause this. Any of you guys may no what is causing this. Thanks

different sized front and rear tires will definetly cause this.

I heard of this problem when I had my GTP, and in the Grand Prix's many times it was a bad ABS sensor, or at least a loose connector for one.

I've had it come on when running on a hoist and the front wheels weren't moving. It is most likely one of the ABS sensors.

Just like every other light, get a code.

I am going to replace the sensors. But I already had the car scan for codes and none came up. So guess I will have to do alittle of troubleshooting to figure this one out.
