Help ABS, Traction, hand brake light all on

Hi all,
I have a 2006 cooper auto and just recently a trifecta of lights came on at the same time (ABS, Traction, hand brake light). Does anyone know how to fix this or recommend a place to get it done (aside from dealer prices).

If you're in Toronto, try RMP Motors, they do lots of BMWs.
Here's some possibilities.
Blown fuse. You can check this.
Hand brake is not fully lowered, easy check.
Hans brake sensor is loose, so car thinks it's up. You could check this if you pull the handbrake cover.
One of your wheel speed sensors is not working. You could quickly check to see if one of the wires leading to your sensor at each wheel is damaged.
One of the tone ring (that the speed sensors read) is damaged. Visually inspect.

Hand brake light on does suggest that the issue is with the handbrake primarily. When it's on, it will disable ABS/Traction.
I would look there first.
