I'd check anyways, pedal dance doesn't disable ABS. (https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...4&postcount=13)

Anecdotally, a friend recently had similar issues with TC lights and power steering lights in her Civic. Car drove normally, but she's not a big car person so idk if that means there were issues that went unnoticed. Turns out it was an ABS magnetic encoder wheel which is integrated into the bearing assembly. Replaced the bad assembly, TC and PS lights went away. May be worth a look, there were no codes the independent shop could pull and it required a dealer to diagnose in the end. I'm seeing a similar setup in our hub assemblies, so it's a potential route to investigate.

The bearing itself is also suspect. If it's failing and causing friction there could be abnormal heat build up. Also, a stuck or failing caliper could put excess heat into the wheel.

Lots of room for minor issues to mess with the stability control system's ability to make sense of what's going on.
