Unhappy Traction Control / VSA issue.

I had this problem in the summer and it seemed to went away. Did a ECU reset yesterday, the gas pedal method. Not sure if this had a play in why it reoccurred.

I think it might be a bad sensor but was wondering if anyone had similar problems like this one before. The symptoms are that my traction control engages like I hit ice, but seemed to pull towards the right passenger side when it engages at random. The triangle traction light remains on along with the VSA light, no abs light. (Had replaced the front abs sensors before)

Anyone have any advice on what else I might be looking at here? If I turn off the car and start it again, the lights don't appear right away but the same problem then reoccurs after some driving. I've been turning off my traction control so I don't get the surprise of it randomly engaging, but notice the problem is still there when the VSA light pops back on.

A buddy of mine encountered the same troubles. It ended up being a bad brake switch.
