06 Mustang V6 Idiot lights

Hello group,

The parking brake light and the traction control lights have been
illuminating on my Mustang Convertible, so far twice, very randomly, always
after a cold start. They will extinguish generally after the car is driven
around and running at operating temperature. The On/Off switch on for the
Traction Control illuminates off, and cannot be toggled back on.

Anyone have a similar problem and solution?

Thanks

Dirk

Does the lights behave the same if you start the car shortly after use
i.e. when engine is still warm? This is a guess but have you had the
battery checked?

This only happens from a cold start.

I will have the battery checked, but I'm thinking along some sort of
condensation accross some terminals or something similar. I'm not sure, but
I think this may only happen after I wash it!
