ABS and Traction Control malfunction messages

Every so often on the dashboard message board (of my 2002 C32) I get the message ABS not working followed by Traction Control not working (or malfunction). I may not have the message exactly right, but usually by the next day the message goes away and does not come back for a week or so. Any idea what is going on? Thank you,
Andy T

I'm not sure about the ABS but every so often I'll get the stupid TC "visit workshop" message. It normally happens if I'm on a rough road. The car doesn't seem to like it.

To reset the TC sytem, start your car, leave it in park and turn the steering wheel all the way to the left, turn it all the way to the right and then finally back to center. Shut off the car and remove the key. Start the car back up and the message should be gone. (This reset feature is in the manual also)
