DSC flashing and traction control came on while driving

Hey guys I've checked the forums and did the all the way to left and right then restarting car and the lights are still flashing. It came on when I was coming home after about a hour and a half drive and can't figure out how to get them off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It could be wheel speed sensor, steering angle sensor, yaw sensor or other things. You'll have to use a scan tool to see if there are any chassis codes to point you in the right direction. Many cheap OBD scan tools and apps won't do it but I know I've seen them with my phone using DashCommand and an ELM327 bluetooth adapter (you'll probably need to buy the Mazda-specific functionality in the app for that).

No idea. Your best bet is to get in touch with the parts department at a Mazda dealer and get the part number from them. Then plug that part number into google to find the best price.
