ABS, Flat Tire Indicator, and DSC light on and won't go away

I bought an '03 MC around Labor Day and ever since, it's had a multitude of problems (overheating, throw out bearing went). So after close to $2000 in repairs since then, the ABS, Flat Tire Indicator, and the DSC light all came on this week. I checked the tire pressure in all 4 tires and everything looks good. What could be causing this? I figure I'd ask here before I take it back into the shop and lose more money on this car. Any ideas?

This seems to happen quite often. One of the wheel speed sensors is normally the problem. There are other threads that address this if you do a search.

Have you got the proper stem caps on the tires?

Sure do. I pumped a little more air into the tires today and I reset the indicator and it went off...for about 5 seconds! Then, all 3 lights came right back on.
