Hi everyone I have been looking on threads to see the answer but couldnt find the exact one so can someone give me some insight please. I recently lowered my car and put 19inch rims on. None of my lights came on when this happened. Then I got my camber kit and new front brake pads and rotors and when they gave me my car back the abs, brake, vdc off, and slip light was on. They acknowledged that they knew this at les schwab and said they probably just didnt put the sensors back in the right place could this be it or is it something else. Please give me some insight. Is this an easy fix that they can do?

odd they didnt switch the wheels around did they? should be a simple fix.

Nor_Cal350

no they didnt switch the wheels around the alignment and brake guy said he had to move some sensors and they need the machine to tell them whats wrong is this true or are they feedin me a line of bull think it should be an easy fix but i just want some opinions

sounds like bull to me i mean brakes are pretty straight foreward on those cars they may have left something un plugged or if they ran the car in the air that happens. have you driven the car very far?

Nor_Cal350

yea i drove the car like 25 miles and all the lights were still on. does it sound like they just have to run the machine and change the sensors?

its hard to say its easy to trip those lights off just take it back to them it should be covered.

It sounds like they damaged the sensors or harness connectors.

did you make sure they have enough brake fluid in the reservoir

Check to see if your brakelights are working properly same thing happened to me when I got my clutch done and it ended out being a short in aftermarket led taillights

I had that little cluster of lights on and I searched on here and found the brake fluid suggestion. I checked my brake fluid, which was low, added it up close to the max line... and boom lights are off and car drove normally.

Of course it could be something more like a sensor problem, but its an easy thing to check for starters.

You would hope that checking the brake fluid was the first thing the shop did but you never can tell.

so i got it fixed today, it took les schwab the whole day to do but it is fixed and they were very nice about it. What it was, was when there alignment and installer technician put my camber kit on the front and rear the extender for the front was put on incorrectly. He accidentally put a washer where there wasn't supposed to be one. Which in turn make the abs sensor in the incorrect position. so they had to take the washer off and leave the bolt as it came with the kit which make the lights not turn off.
