How old is the battery? It may test fine after you just drove it but still be near end of life. If it’s near three years old, swap it out. Cheap and easy to try first.

I've fumbled the brake on my pushbutton-start car and found myself with all the dashboard lights on, and the car not ready to drive. I try again and the car starts and runs normally. That may be what's happening here.

It sounds like a typical PEBKAC error/malfunction.

Better yet, if Mom is getting older and she can afford it, just make sure she is driving a new car. Gets a new car every couple years, or lease.

Every sensor went bad at the same time and then they all recovered together??

Can’t tell what’s wrong with it based on posts. Sounds like some sort of switch is going bad (e.g., relay switch maybe). What kind of car is it op?

It is nine years old buy a new car

What’s wrong with you?
The mechanic can not find anything wrong then it’s her

Assuming she left it over night as a cold start for them to test

Mom is nervous to drive her car with every indicator flashing. I don't blame her

The gizmo is called an AutoScanner. Have someone at an auto parts store help find the right model to buy for the car.

The fancier the vehicles get with computers, sensors, etc. the more trouble they will have. Plus cost 200% more for the gadgets.

Sounds like a short in the instrument panel connecting the warning lights, but if it's not affecting performance, then let it ride.

Cars always are on their best behavior when they sense they are being taken to the car doctor.

Sounds fine then. I don't understand the issue. Maybe it's your Mother.

This has happened twice. She starts the car..all the indicators stay on...but the car still runs. When she gets it to the shop, it's starts fine no indicators. They.feel it looks fine. The first time was several months ago. The battery tests fine. She is about the bring it to the dealer. It's about 9 years old. Any thoughts?
