Help Diagnosing Warning Lights

On my 2007 4Runner, the 4 warning lights related to the VSC/ABS/Traction Control features come on and stay on when the car is started. If I move the car about 10 feet and then turn it off and back on, the lights will go out. Sometimes I have to do this a second time.

Has anyone else seen this problem?
If so, how bad was it to fix?

Go get it scanned at a parts store and get the codes at least. If I had to speculate I'd say a wheel speed sensor.

if you have something plug in the obd 2 port, itll cause it too sometimes. also how is the battery? sometimes low voltage cause all source of problems down the road.

i had something similar to this a while back that was due to the gas tank cap. If you search the forum for it, you will find it. basically, this can happen if the gas cap is either not tightened all the way or is not sealing properly. i replaced my cap and the issue went away.

not sure what's up with moving the car 10 ft and restarting - maybe that impacts pressure in the tank affecting the sensors?
