Stabilitrac, traction control, abs lights on. Need help -_-

Just need to know what trips all these lights on.

Had a rain storm last night, hit a few deep puddles along the way and the lights all came on.

I'm assuming a wheel speed sensor went out on me? Any way to tell which one?

Thank you.

Relax,
you probably just got them a little out of whack, and they will probably return to normal shortly.
Did you throw a CEL code?

It was on last night, still on this morning. Car runs fine, but no abs or traction/stability control

I have heard that happening before. They shouldn't go out driving in water so the warranty should cover it as long as your within the warranty period. Seeing yours is a 2010 I hope you have the extended warranty.
The dealer can tell with a diagnostic reader.

I have 140k miles, so I don't have warranty. I turn my own wrenches anyways, I've been dicked one too many times.

Anyways,
There is definitely some sort of problem. I reset the stabilitrac system, and I drove a few feet and the lights cleared.

However,
The brakes feel very spongy, almost like abs is trying to kick in when I stomp on the brakes, and service stabilitrac kicks back in again. Happened three times today. So I'm assuming it's a abs issue. Car feels fine, stops appropriately, but lacks the modern creature comforts of Tc/sc/abs

Any good ideas what could be the culprit?

You may have gotten water in one or more of the sensors or their connectors, unplug them and dry them out the best you can with compressed air. It may clear up.

Narrowed it down tonight, I hooked up a high end scan tool and it read c0045 code, which is the left rear speed sensor..

Which could be caused by:
Physical damage
Debris in the wheel speed sensor or encoder ring
Loose or improperly mounted sensor
Gap between the sensor or encoder ring
Water intrusion in the wire harness

I'll see what I can do

Probably the water, secondary may be debris. Those are probably most likely.

Gonna use the tech 2 and go around the parking lot.. check the speed sensors are reading the same and check the brake pedal switch voltage and position sensor. I bet it won't be hard to see while using the live data feed.
