Default ABS, Brake and TRAC Lights Remain ON.

I have a 2002 Sequoia. A couple of days back, warning light for BRAKE, ABS, & TRAC, wouldn't go off after the vehicle is running. I am an electrician and have check every single possibility to solve this issue without good results. I have all electrical diagrams that describe the power souces for those respective warning lights. I have isolated the SKID CONTROL ECU and the TRANSLATE ECU but the lights would not go off.
The only remaining points to check are the combination meter on the instrument panel. Anybody had a similar problem and got a solution?

I recently had the same problem. Checked here and most said it was a bad computer. cost was $2400. I decided the lights being on didn't really bother me that much so i forgot about it. A month later, i had the hood opened and noticed the brake fluid reservoir was quite a bit over filled. I had recently replaced the rear pads so this could account for that.

Anyway, I used a syringe to remove the over fill and 2 days later, the lights went off. It's been about 2 months now and the lights are still off.

I have a feeling that Toyota dealers are making a killing replacing computers that really aren't bad.

I agree first thing to do is check the brake fluid level, this will bring on all lights. After that you need to pull a code so we can see where the problem is.
