Strange happenings with dash lights

This afternoon after work when I started my truck the abs light, the brake light, the low fuel light all remained on after the normal startup. Also the fuelgauge needle wandered from 1/2 to full several times. It even went to empty once and the chime sounded. I have seen things on the forum about some of these but should all of these happen at once. Not sure where to look first. Any ideas would be great.
Thanks CW

Sounds like a PCM glitch, much like the kind that affects our home computers at times but goes away after turning it off and back on.
Hope it only does it once for you, if it keeps up try disconnecting the batteries for a half hour.
