Default ABS and TRAC lights

Both my ABS and TRAC lights are on. Once in a while they'll randomly turn off, but both at the same time. When I press my TRAC Control button nothing happens at all, the light just stays on. Does anyone know a fix for this problem? I've searched but didn't find much. Thanks in advance.

Hrm, weird. Yeah my trac light and abs will just out of the blue turn off. They have both been on for over a month now, it's pretty annoying.

from what i remember trac+check engine = o2 sensor right?

i had the lights come on, on numerous occasions....... but when i get on the highway after not even a good minute of driving steady past 60mph it goes away and stays gone for quite a while. its been a couple of months now and hasnt come back....... weird.'

closest thing to help i can find.
