I was sitting at a light on my way to work this morning and these 3 lights came on- Check Engine, vehicle dynamics control warning light, and cruise control... what does that all mean? Again the car wasn't moving at the time.

 

I have a 2014 Impreza premium with CVT

Found the answer- the CEL triggered the ECU to shut down traction control system and Cruise Control. Question was- what caused the CEL?

 

I'm hoping it was the gas cap (I filled up last night). I made sure it was tight an did a "poor man's" ECU reset (pulled the negative battery cable). CEL is cleared and stayed off for the 40 mile trip home. 

 

Need to get me a code scanner- this one seem sot have some good feature (and good feedback for the price):
