Help. Changed Hubs. Now Svc Traction, Svc Esc, Brake, ABS and Svc TPMS Lights on.

2008 LNF

Changed all four hubs and now the dash looks like a Christmas tree. LOL. I did some research on here but thought I'd see if any of you guys had any input or suggestions.

I'm thinking that maybe a sensor got dirty or isn't connected right or something. I think the sensors work for ABS and Speed and that would cover everything but the Svc Tire Pressure System warning.

For the TPMS issue I think I just need to do the horn honking thing. Tried it three times but when I get to the front right tire the car doesn't pick it up whether I'm adding or taking air out and then it does the two honks like it stopped. Then I have to start over. Done it three times so far. Supposed to be new sensors but maybe it's a bad one :mystery:

i would unplug and plug in your connections again, see what happens. also try and dive the car for a bit. see if it will work itself out.

did you disconnect your battery before swapping them?

i would disconnect your battery, leave it off for 15min reconnect

if issues still show up a sensor is bad or wire is damaged

Thanks for the help.

So far I have determined that one of the TPMS sensors is bad. They were new but the car just can't seem to pick one up. When I do the horn honking procedure it will pick up the other three just fine. So I'm pretty sure that takes care of the Service Tire Pressure message.

Don't think the hubs are bad because they're brand new Timken.

I did disconnect the battery for hours. When I started it up it cranked for a while and the radio clock was reset and so forth so pretty sure it was reset.

So I think you guys are right. It's either a wire or sensor I must have messed up during the install. Now just to figure out where the problem is.

It looks like each sensor has two pins. I'm not familar with electrical stuff but if I put a volt meter in each hole would it register 12V?

Thanks again for all the help.
