    5'' Lift w/ 22" fuel ,
    Hello All, I am new to this. I have a 2019. I just got a 5" lift with some 22" fuel with 35's. I was driving today and all kinds of lights came on. Driver-Start, PCS, and Trailer brake error. Would this have anything to do with the lift? I have read some other threads, but none mentioned having a lift. Should I take this to the dealer or to the place I got the lift? Thank you for any help and sorry to bother anyone.

    I had the exact same thing happen to me today. Would you mind letting me know what your resolution was?

    Does the truck have the TSS sensor up front on the grille? Any other mods, LED bulbs will do this

    It does have the TSS up front with the AJT Designs bracket. I also have LED turn signals. I've gotten the TSS offline warning before, but this is the first time that I got the triple crown. PSC + DSC + TBE.

    I stopped by the dealer on my way to work. The service department was all backed up. They didn't seem too concerned about it. The service writer said it might just go off by itself once the heavy rain that we were getting stops. I've noticed that the TSS gets funky more often when it gets wet.

    Maybe have the TSS calibrated and check your leds

    In any case I'm going to drop the truck off in the morning. I'll let you all know what the outcome is.

    Hello, sorry I turned off my notifications. On my truck it was the wheel sensor. When they did the lift, a wire was pinched. It was an easy fix the place I had the lift done at had it finished in 5 min.

    Update. I did not drop my truck off at the dealer. I drove it all week without any incidents (with the exception of the aforementioned issues). Today I checked the interior fuses. They were all good. I ran a scan and it wasn't throwing any codes. I opened the hood to check the fuses in the engine bay and found an assortment of twigs and sticks. I found a wire harness that had been chewed on, the wires were a little exposed. but not chewed through. I made an appointment with the service dept to drop it off on Friday. I was very surprised at this because the truck is driven every day.

    It turned out that whatever the critter was chewed through the speed sensor wire that goes to one of my front wheels. The dealer replaced it and I've had no more issues.

    I have all of these lights on but also now check engine popped up. Dealer said the transmission needs to be dropped to check an check for pieces that it might be linked and something may be clogged. Anyone think that sounds legit?
