Default New problem for me!

Hello and thanks for any help first

My wife has a 2006 mustang gt 4.6
Automatic trans 56k miles

This is the problem which I have never seen before.

When driving the abs,airbag,battery,and traction lights will all light up at the same time?
I drove it this morning to check it and it
Did it to me also. The car didn't hesitate one bit or anything.

I also noticed the tcs button on the dash turned off.

I would like to fix this problem so she doesn't get stranded with the car!

Thanks again!

Funky electrical gremlins in these cars are commonly caused by the smart junction box in the passenger side front footwell being contaminated with water. Any blockage in the cowl drain plugs can cause water to accumulate in the cowl and find its way into the cabin via the cabin air filter. A wet or damp carpet on the front passenger side should confirm that suspicion. Pull the cowl cover and have a look inside for water, especially in the area around the cabin air filter.
