Default AU Fairmont Ghia Traction Control light

Hi I have a 1999 AU Fairmont Ghia.
The traction control light and the abs light come on simultaneously and will stay on for a while and or goes away after I have turned the car off. When I turn the car back on and drive they both come on again?
Anyone had this problem before?

It's a common problem and I had these guys in Sydney do mine: http://absrepair.com.au/index.html

Normally he would just repair modules that have been sent to him and send them back, but I bought my car to his business premises and he did it while I waited. I was happy about that as getting the module out of the engine bay is quite fiddly as there isn't much room to play with.
