duke -- thanks for the info. As yet, the issue has not returned, but I will check out the switch if the lights appear again.

arthur -- my mechanic read the codes and all we saw was my persistent #5 (clogged EGR tube).

Does the ABS pump keep running, with the engine off and key out of the ignition, if the brake switch is faulty? Or did, as I am assuming, the ABS relay get stuck in the "on" position? And could some other relay, i.e. OVP (if this car has one) have triggered that?
