My wife was driving her car and the service engine soon light came on as well as the traction control light and the abs light. She did not notice any difference in her brakes and when she came to a stop, she shut the engine off and turned it on again and the lights went out and stayed out. Any guess as to what that might be?

Sounds like the speed sensor is giving bad or no data. The computer may be interpreting that there is no movement or unequal movement happening.

440 is an evap leak so check fuel cap and erase code see if it comes back if it does it needs to be smoke tested to see where the leak is. Fuel cap should have at least 3 clicks after getting fuel.

I came across another issue. I changed my own brakes and now no codes are reading but I have a break light reading on the dash along with a anti- theft light on the dash cluster.

The brake light may be an abs problem so a mechanic will need to scan for codes for that may be a sensor or something more serious.try a security system reset for anti theft if it won't go out a mechanic will need to scan for that as well. see link
