Vdc, Slip Light And Abs Light Stay On

Okay i have seen this a couple of times. I get in my car start it up press the VDC off button, start driving and some where a long drive the VDC OFF, SLIP and ABS light stay on, the VDC will not toggle. The car operates normally, and the lights go off after a restart. The last time this happened I parked my car and came back, the battery was dead, the car wasn't parked more than an hour. I took the car to the dealer, once before my battery died about the same problem, nothing could be found or messages in the computer. I just brought it back yesterday for service since the battery died and road side assistance had to come. They said it was because of a low voltage indication in the computer... now I hate dealing with service people or any one from dealer ships in general, but the the reason they saw a low voltage indication was found this time is because my ******* battery was dead! They ended up not doing anything........ anyone else see this problem? any recommendations?

Try an ECU reset, this should do it.

Did they replace your battery? There have been post on here saying that some bad batteries have been found in some Gs.
