i don't think this is a good indication. but maybe it's just some little error?

but from what i remember, the ecu doesn't make the VSA and ABS light turn on at the same time unless it's something real important or bad (i forgot exactly what, i remember reading it a few days ago)

have you tried checking connections did you unplug anything?

I don't know where I could have unplugged anything.

I'm getting a similar issue. My VSA lights and ! light will be on randomly. In addition, my odometer, speedometer and coolant need will fluctuate wildly every couple minutes or so. Quite scary but the car still runs.

I had a similar issue, with the VSA, ABS and the triangle with an ! mark on. It would come and go, but didn't affect the car's performance. Read somewhere that it might be a battery terminal being corroded or loose, did a wiggle test and nothing, however all the lights have ceased and haven't returned. However my CEL has come one.... time to go to a shop.

ABS and VSA are related by the Wheel speed sensor that's located in the hubs. You may have damaged/unplugged one by accident while doing your brakes is the best I can guess.
