Default Help! BRAKE, VDC OFF, and SLIP!

I"m having trouble figuring out what's wrong with my 6-Speed 03 350z lately.
I have no clue if the cold have to do with anything with this but my car started acting up since the temperature drop.
Everyday since my would have the BRAKE, VDC off, SLIP light on when I start my car. But if I were to shut off my car after driving for about 10 minutes, all the lights would disappear... But when ever I hold the brake down my BRAKE would light up by itself then disappear when the brake is disengaged. Also when all the lights are off, whenever I STEP on it, all three lights would pop up and stays on... This past weekend I was stepping on it and my engine completely shutted off around 90 mph... This only happened once.

Things I've Check:
Brake Pads are still good to use.
Brake fluids are right exact in between Max and Min.
I also Check Codes at autozone: And it said to be the knock Sensors.
But that code has always been there, but it doesn't trip my SES.
So I'm very positive its not because of the Knock Sensors.

check the speed sensors on the back axles, and maybe try resetting the ecu

+1. If I were you I'd disconnect the battery and wait a while before reconnecting it.
