Can anyone tell me what would cause the HDC, TC, and ABS lights to
come on simultaneously?

The ABS module is detecting a fault? It controls all three.

Do you have any ideas about what would cause the ABS to module to
register a fault?

Thanks,

ABS error codes can only be read with a test book usually only found
at the dealer. I have not taken it in to the dealer yet because I was
hoping to save the money and self diagnose the problem.

Since you have not told us what make, year, model or any other
significant information about your vehicle, I suspect this is as far
as anyone can go.

Generally ABS codes can be read with an ABS code reader. Most (good)
mechanics have one. The ABS code meanings are generally available on
the web.

And, you can get an acceptable ABS code reader from Sears, of all
places! But for most vehicles, a paperclip will work just fine.

I would guess the fault would be either a wheel sensor or the pump motor
itself.
But of course it could be anything, and a scanner is the only way to
find out for sure.

I appreciate the responses and I will go to a mechanic and get the
codes read and go from there.
