Default Warning lights coming on while driving - please help.

I get 350z ABS/TCS/Brake/Slip lights coming on while driving. However, it goes away after restarting the car.
Has anyone else had a similar experience and if so, what does this mean?

Hmm, I had my ABS light come on about three weeks ago for no reason at all (while driving). When I stopped and restarted the car, it went away. If it starts happening more often, I guess it's off to the dealership

did you dyno your car?
did you change your rims and tires?
check and make sure your rear tires are in the rear and not in front if stock sizes...

Everything in/on my car is stock. I've never dynoed it.
This is very strange... all 4 lights come on, but everything functions fine.

Now my 2004 ZTR is in the shop for ,(what I am recording as Strike Two), 3 strikes and the Lemon Law takes effect, right? My car has a total power failure when I step on it or the tach goes above 5000. The Dealer replaced the whole computer the first time. The very next day, boom, same thing again. Now they have been working on it just one day so far, but that's been a solid day ,8AM 'til 6PM(non stop). Service writer at last phone conversation said the machanic was on the phone with Nissan. Everyone is scratching their heads? I've read many similar problems but they all seem to revolve around the K&N filter. Mine is stock, so no such luck as a simple sensor replacement. My fingers are crossed that tomarrow they'll find a solution. I sure don't want to use the lemon law rule on my baby. I've put blood sweat, and tears into the upkeep and maintenance. Don't want to start all over. Anyone else out there with similar problems? Would love to knock heads, "FLZ", Dave drbtc@adelphia.net
