Default abs, traction control Help

after driving my car for a couple of miles my traction control turns off and my ABS light comes on, when i first start my car the ABS light stays off and my traction control is on, so can anybody help me to why this is happening.

one of the wheel speed sensors could have brake dust covering it causing the sensor not send a good signal to the computer. That is one of many possibilities....

get your sensors check...because they all have to be reading the same exact to be working correctly

Exact same issue happened on my 02 monte carlo. From what I gather it is infact the wheel speed sensor. Mine finally went away. It started when it rained then snowed, and now it's dry. Happened last winter too, so I don't pay much attention to it. Just annoying.
