Give your battery a proper charge
Test your battery voltage make sure it’s not now on its way out

Probably lost the calibration for the steering angle sensor. With the engine running start with the steering wheel centred and slowly turn the steering fully one way and then fully to the other way in smooth motions. This should recalibrate the steering controller to the angle sensor's readings.

Cheers guys checked my batt voltage it's ok guess what the lights turned off by themselves once I started moving

A low battery will cause that. If you ever get it again then let your car tick over for a few seconds then turn off and back on again. Should clear then. Power steering takes a lot out the battery when you turn the ignition on.

Ah makes sense if the car hadn't been moved since the battery went flat. It will have been the ABS unit not having any readings from the ABS sensors which is why it cleared after the car was moved.
