Default ABS, Traction Control & Hill Start Assist lights popped up - Problem Solved!

So these 3 lights have been popping up the last couple of days and don't go off unless I switch off and re-start. Then a short while later they pop up again. Car drives fine, but I can't change any of the TC settings while these lights are up. Haven't tested the ABS or hill start assist while the lights are on.

Not throwing any codes (used Rev2 and OBD fusion though my KiwiWifi to check).

Found this thread on iwsti.com and it seems to say (33 fricking pages!?!) the stop light switch is the problem. Going to the stealership tomorrow to see if they have the part in stock and how much (according to that thread, about $15 hopefully!).

Anyone else had the same issue? It was fairly common for the guys on iwsti, with MY11+ sedans being the main culprits; they reckon due to the incandescent globes on those compared to the LEDs in the hatch version. I've swapped my rear lights over to LEDs though, but only relatively recently, so I'm hoping it's just a dodgy switch.

Will post up the results once I've swapped the switch for a new one...
