Dashboard lights galore + speedo inop

Killerfish2012 · 09-19-2014, 03:16 PM

So Monday, I got both front and rear rotors, pads, pad sensors, and both rear wheel bearings replaced at an indy shop. After install, the ABS Light, brake light, air bag, and seat restraint lights come on after ignition. The front and rear brake pad sensors refuse to be reset via the dash. Also the speedometer is inoperable, and the gas guage starts reading falsely when below 1/2 tank. The shop said that the rear left speed/abs sensor was bad, so I had them replace both of them. All parts for these jobs were supplied by me and are oem. The battery also gave a low charge warning so I replaced it, and will have it registered tomorrow at the stealership. The Stealer said it might be my ABS control module that needs replacing. I'm wondering if anyone else has a clue as to what could be wrong.

Sounds like voltage issues. Battery should've solved most or all of that.

Yeah, but it didn't though.

Wheel bearings were installed backwards, and I didn't change out the front left brake sensor. Indy shop is stepping up to the plate and fixing it for free.

Just reading the op, I was about to suggest having your Indy check the bearings for proper installation. Sounds like you need a new shop if they don't know the car well enough to know the bearings contain the speed sensor impulse wheels. That or they need to look at instructions for working on cars they aren't familiar with. Glad to hear it's being resolved.
Edit: they should reimburse you for the speed sensor replacements since they weren't necessary.
