My wife was driving her car and the service engine soon light came on as well as the traction control light as well as the abs light. She did not notice any difference in her brakes and when she came to a stop, she shut the engine off and turned it on again and the llights went out and stayed out. Any guess as to what that might be?

As a guess a possible speed sensor giving bad or no data. The computer may be interpreting that there is no movement or unequal movement happening.
