BRAKE, ABS, VDC and slip lights on (not low fluid)
 
Going home from Zdayz two weeks ago, all of those lights came on. I figured it was just low fluid and pressed on home. Yesterday, I got around to switching wheels and brake pads for my track day this weekend, and the fluid was full. I topped it off a little extra anyways, but the lights are still on.

Caught the dealership right before they closed and set up an appointment for them to look at it today, so we dropped it after hours last night.

Hopefully its something simple, but I also checked and reseated all the fuses and plugs.

I'll be sad if it needs parts and I miss my track weekend :(

I think you have worse luck than me, Mike. So far I've always managed to get my car back to trackable condition without missing more than a session. Seems like whenever you have a problem it costs you a weekend. :(

I have heard that it could also be a sensor at the wheel. I have seen similar cases with the armada's and even some subies, and they both had a sensor/wire at the wheel that got nicked or cut and it was throwing these same lights. Just food for thought, curious as to what the dealer says. Keep us updated!

It was giving, among a whole slew of other non check engine codes, a wheel sensor code. But all 4 sensors checked out fine with the consult.

It turned out to be a small bit of tire marble that somehow got caught up in between the front right sensor and its hub.

All good to go and no parts needed!!!!
