    2" front spacers,1" add a leaf and 1 1/4 rear blocks.
    Just installed a 3" leveling kit with 2" blocks on my 2014 tss and now the traction control light is on. The alignment is off a little, not sure if this is why the light is now on. Has this happened to anyone? Thanks

    Check your front wheel sensors to see if they were reinstalled correctly, and check their wires for damage.

    Sounds like an abs sensor got unhooked or broken.

    K, just checked them. No damage and look to be installed right.

    Run the fault code and then, go from there.

    take it to the dealer and have them reset the traction control light took them like 10minutes they just have to recalibrate your angle sensor, cause you went up 3in from stock the car isn't used to it.

    ps. i did my lift 3 days ago same problem.

    Have it aligned BEFORE you have the VSC recalibrated. If you don't, the steering angle sensor will be out of calibration again once aligned. You can recalibrate the VSC yourself too, there are one or two threads here on the topic.
