Warning lights on

I have a 2008 panel with 30K mi.
Brake ,Abs and traction lights are on.
No codes in computer.
Pads and shoes are good and fluid is full.
Car brakes strong and normal.
Ideas?

Go to a shop that can read ABS codes. Not all code readers can.

Depending on what engine y'all have it could be VVT solenoids related, then again it could be hubs

I have the 2.4
I found that the tire pressure for the rear tires wasn't showing so I pulled all the tires and checked everything again.
Tire pressure now shows but lights are still on.

Who mentioned tire pressure monitors? If one tire was flat there might be enough difference in rotation speed to set a TC or ABS light, pressure sensor has nothing to do with that, it would be wheel speed sensor (part of the hub/bearing).

If all 3 of those lights are on you need to get the ABS codes read, get the numbers not the descriptions. The lights would not be lit if there were no codes.

If it was ONLY TC and ABS I would be thinking VVT valves as a possibility. A wild guess is something is wrong with the ABS computer.

My ABS & TC light comes on from time to time. Went to Oriely's and found out its my rear ABS sensor. I have a 2010 LT with a 2.2L.. just waiting for it to stay on full time before I fix it. Its off now but did have it come on when going thru the car wash. Then went off again. Plan on replacing the rear hub when lights stay on for good.
