Dash lights issue

[TKRbeast]

Drive a 2008 4runner sport, about 120K miles on it. I would say every month, when I start the car, the engine light stays on, the traction control light starts blinking, and some other light that escapes me for the moment.

To remedy this, I just do a reset by removing the battery terminal, then I'm all good for about a month and the same thing happens again.

Car drives fine, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this before.

Thanks,
Edmond

There's an issue with the vehicle.

I would direct you to these threads to have a better idea of what is going on and how to approach it:

When the lights come on again, I would find a shop that has an ABS capable scanner to check for DTCs. Once you have the DTCs we can start to narrow down what might be wrong.
