Is the speedo still working OK, if it is its more than likely a sensor on one of the wheels, could even be dirt  ;)

How bad was the puncture?

If the tyre came apart it could have torn a sensor wire off..

I suppose it's possible that the wheel diameter being wrong due to deflation might have upset the ABS/TC ECU?

Is the spare tyre the same size as the other tyres? I wonder if the rolling radius is different and still upsetting the ECU.

As said, loom for damaged sensor / wiring, especially if it doesn't go out after the original wheel has been replaced with a repaired / replaced tyre.
