Strange warning light issue

With my slightly smaller spare i did trigger brake and ABS lights, but as mentioned, no codes, no check engine light or anything else. Vehicle is parked and won't move again until it's going to get a new tire.

Wheel sensor can set off a lot of codes... not sure if these are all a match though.

Good to know. Once my tech stream gets here I'll know for sure and will update the thread.
 
No update yet since I'm having trouble getting tech stream reading the dongle once connected to the vehicle.

It took a few tries to get mine connected.
Try it different ways, plug the dongle in with the car running, with it not running. Try connecting to your PC same way. Jiggle wires/dongle, anything.

I suspect it's more of a 32-bit vs 64-bit issue. LOL

My update will have to wait. I cannot get my VM to read the USB ports so I cannot get Tech Stream on the VM to install. The internet doesn't have a solution so I have no idea how to fix it. I'll have to get my local mechanic to look at the codes n the meantime.

The lights are on/blinking most of the time and I don't have traction control or ABS it seem based on my sliding around on the frozen stuff. Good thing I got brand new winter tires. LOL
 
Sounds similar to an issue I had. Caused by a sunroof leak and water getting into the wiring on the drivers side. Not sure if yours is the same, but you might want to check for moisture under your floor mat/carpet and behind the panel under the dash. Intermittent because it goes away when it dries out.

Speed Sensor Errors

While coming to a stop the GX gave a little shudder (like the ABS activated) and then the ABS, BRAKE, Traction Control, and triangle warning lights came on with a check BSM system message. On the way home the warning lights went off. Then, after 100+ miles, same thing...shudder at low speed...

I checked that first. I had cleaned out my drains somewhat recently so there's no worries there thankfully.

I really think it's either a wheel speed sensor or and related sensor. I just hope I can figure out how to get tech streak up and running so I can check myself.
 
I got similar lights when I glazed my brake pads
