ABS / Traction Control Lights On

[Phishy]

Posted this in a different section already before I saw this one.
IDK if it’s coincidence, but shortly after I put new wheels and tires on my ABS and Traction Control lights came on and will not go off. Dash says to service both systems. JScan is showing two codes. I looked at real time data for my wheels speed sensors and they seems to be working correctly.

U140E-00 implausible vehicle configuration data received
Active - anti lock brakes

U0418 implausible data received from brake system control module 1
Testing - Powertrain control

Check your wheel speed sensors.

Based on the wording of the codes, I would suspect they were a result of using Jscan to update the tire settings. Check and save the changes again, and then clear the codes and see if they return.

I did this via JScan and live data and all were functioning correctly

I don't believe in coincidences. Something happened during the swap.

Tried this. Codes come back immediately.

That’s my thought too, but what the hell could it be? I’ve taken wheels on and off my Jeeps hundreds of times.

Have you tried a capacitive discharge?

Have you tried putting the settings changed with Jscan back to their original values?

I’m not familiar with that term.

I did. Nothing changed.

You disconnect both batteries then touch the positive and negative cables together while making sure you do NOT touch the battery terminals. That will discharge the capacitors in every module in the vehicle and fully erase any faults. Think of it as a hard re-boot.

Remember to completely disconnect both batteries if doing this. Usually, just disconnecting both batteries for an hour or so will do the trick.

Are you saying disconnect both the + and - or disconnect both the main and secondary batteries (the secondary is buried under the main battery)

Touch the cables together and you don't have to wait an hour.
