    So I put a 2.5” level kit on my 2018 tundra 4x4 sr5 crewmax today. I installed it at my uncles house since he has better tools and a better garage than me. On the 10 minute drive home all of my TSS sensors were going crazy. When I got home I decided to disconnect my battery and reset my computer. After doing that everything went back to normal and all of my sensors work fine now. Anyone else experience this?

    What sensors went off? You would only see one light on the dash if it was the PCS. The PCS does not recalibrate itself. If the PCS went off, it’ll go off again and again until you raise the rear so you’re not nose high. You may still need to bring it in to the dealership for a recalibration if the problem persist?

    Traction control, trailer brake control, pcs, and it wouldn’t let me use my cruise control. But like I said after I disconnected my battery for 15 minutes everything went back to normal. Works fine now.

    Only sensor you would have is PCS. All the other lights have nothing to do with the TSS system at all. You either pinched, broke, or unplugged an abs wire going to the hub.

    Could it have been due to my alignment being extremely off? When I got gone I adjusted my tie rods ans got my steering wheel straight and the wheels straight, disconnected the battery for 15 minutes and everything works flawlessly now.

    No. Alignment being off will not trigger a sensor. Only a fault in a sensor will cause lights on the dash.
