New battery issues

Truck is a 2018 Tacoma trd sport long bed after installing new battery I now have ( check vehicle stability control),(pre-collision system malfunction),( lane departure alert malfunction), and (headlight system malfunction) had none of these issues before battery replacement. Thank you

 

Battery swap should not have caused any of this? Are you telling us the whole story?

 

remove the negative battery cable and wait a minute and re install. can't hurt to try.

 

Yes sir, truck usually just gets drove to the lake and on the weekends.. didn’t want to start weekend before last so I put a charger on it for about a hour then fired it up and pulled the boat to the ramp no issues or lights.. last weekend truck didn’t start again just clicked so I inspected the battery and it had some dampness on the top ports and was dated 06/21 also voltage was low so today after work I picked up a 24f replacement battery (from Walmart) and connected on initial start up the mentioned malfunctions were present. I read on a forum to disconnect battery and hold positive and negative cables together for 5 minutes (zip tie) . To completely reset, but after reconnecting the battery there was no improvement

 

Likely faults caused by the low voltage. You'll need a licensed scan tool to clear and read all those codes.

Sometimes when batteries are really rough, the steering angle sensor fails and causes all these codes. Hopefully this isnt the case.

 

Only time I have seen this on here, is when others hooked battery, or jumper cables up backwards.

 

I can assure you that isn’t the issue.. I’m trying to figure it out without going to the dealer.. If I made that mistake I’d own up to it in order to get to the root of the problem

 

Check for corrosion at the wires and terminals sounds like a ground is loose for it to just happen after battery replacement .

 

There are a handful of threads with similar/exact problem as you. Seems to be fixed by clearing the codes, performing a zero point calibration, or replacing the steering angle sensor.

 

Truck would not preform a zero point calibration.. parked truck level and steering wheel straight tried multiple times it wouldn’t abs and vsc light would not start flashing

 

Your local auto parts store will usually scan the codes for free.

 

The big BUT. They won’t clear them unless you slip the tech $20 good luck.

 

Better than $150.00 at the dealer

 

Bought a harbor freight Zurich zr13s scanned abs/vsc/trac and the truck has a U0126 current- lost communication with steering angle sensor module.. it will not clear out .. also C1A50 current- brake system malfunction… I was able to clear out headlight malfunction.

 

sounds like the charger smoked your steering angle sensor homie.

 

Update: finally got around to ordering a eBay SAS then after a few months finally put it in the truck … took all of 30 minutes .. no recalibration yet codes disappeared and dash is clear .. thanks yall

 

@Calebfox34 I have the same issue, replaced my battery after it went dead on my 2018 TRD-offroad, same sensor issues appeared. Just found your thread here, what did you purchase from ebay to clear these readings?

 

He said " got around to ordering a eBay SAS "
That's a Steering Angle Sensor .....

 

@disk_55FL Got it, that is also what the dealership said that went bad... Could this have been caused by a power surge when the battery was replaced?
