Default Problem with ABS, TCS, SLIP Lights!!!

I currently have the 2005 UY 350z with 18k miles, my problem with the z is that for some reason when i turn on the car my ABS, TCS off, SLIP lights are ON... and for some reason when I am on first gear and I release the clutch without steping on the gas, the car wouldnt stall at all... all the mod are below (my sign), also have anybody on this forum have the same problem??? need to take it to the dealership monday morning and would it be safe for me to drive it on sunday?

That's kind of weird, but it just started happening to me this morning. My BRAKE, VDC, and SLIP light all came on and remained while driving. I work at a Nissan dealer, so I'm going to have one of my mechanics run for codes, but if I find anything, I will post a reply.

Several people have had this problem. Several different causes.

Speed Sensor came undone (mine)

Brake Fluid Low (a few other people)

there were a few other things, do a search around the forums and you will find the threads.

That makes a little bit of sense, because while decreasing speed to a stop, the BRAKE light eventually turned off.

I see....It could've happened on friday when I had my pads replaced. Since then my left front brake has been dripping small amounts of brake fluid, but the brake fluid level is normal. But that does make sense, if something were to have pinched the brake line, it could've also pinched or messed with the speed sensor.

I ended up getting entirely new calipers on both front brakes. They said that they O-rings were busted and they couldn't repair them. So they just warrantied the calipers and got me new ones.
