Maxima indicator light problems

Does anyone know the cause of the following three indicator lights coming on and staying on all at the same time. The traction control light, the ABS light and the Slip light. All three, and only these three are connected to the same control box. Does anyone know the location of the control box. This is a 2001 Nissan Maxima GLE.

think so? the alternator was replaced within the last 2 years, you think that could be the reason for the lights?

A bad alternator seems to be a fairly common culprit when you have multiple trouble lights come on like that. I'd get it checked, just to be sure.
