ABS, traction management, brake lights on after battery replacement

[peterk9]

Which scan tool did you use with the Forscan software? I’ve read reviews for many on Amazon and some do not seem to work. I’m having the same issues in a 2013 Explorer after a dead battery changeout. Thanks

Welcome to the Forum.
I don't use that tool but there should be lots of info on scan tools etc in this thread, How to: - New Forscan Update Allows Module Programming

To any who find this thread while looking for a fix just like I did, I have just went though this same issue (abs and all other lights associated with it on after a battery replacement) and I managed to figure out a fix. What you need to do is select the "calibrate longitudinal acceleration sensor" in forscan and follow the procedure (it is very simple and forscan holds your hand through it) I tried the "abs module reset" multiple times but that did nothing. I did not find this specific set of steps to follow as a fix to this anywhere else on the internet. If you want further directions or clarifications to how exactly I did it, reply!
