    Hi I’m new to this but I’m hoping I can get some answers here. I lifted my 2019 Tundra, it’s a BDS 7 inch lift. Well now my collision sensor, ABS, traction are off and has the dash lit up. Also my speedometer, odometer, and gas gauge are not working! I went to Toyota and they said they can’t help me cause it’s an aftermarket lift kit. Idk what to do at this point.

    If you’re having an issue it really should only be the pre-collision sensor turning off because it’s not aligned properly. Maybe the guys broke the ABS sensors or something doing the lift. Did they put any extension cables on the brakes or anything?

    A sensor is broke or unplugged somewhere related to the abs or speed sensor. Those have nothing to do with the PCS which would only be one light on the dash indicating a malfunction. At 7” of lift, you may not be able to get the PCS recalibrated since it’s only enough adjustment for up to 3” of lift.

    Check to see if the wire clips are in fully on the back of the wheels. upload_2020-1-1_12-17-48.jpg After I did my lift my dash was lite up to it was one of this clips not in all the way, but with 7” I’m sure those lines would have to be extended.

    Go back to the people that lifted your truck and tell them to do it the correct way.

    If you did it then as others said. Check all the connections.

    Pics under it etc would help as well.
    Most are more visual when trying to troubleshoot

    Welcome from NY.
    The TSS has to be recalibrated, like others have said bring it back to who did the lift to correct the other issues.

    The collision sensor would definitely be affected by a 7" lift, but that would just show the 'Radar unavailable' message on the screen and/or the PCS warning light on the dash. It would not affect the odometer, speedometer, gas gauge. Most likely one of the cables in the rear is unplugged/disconnected.

    i thank you all for the information and quick responses. When I get out of work I will surely check those clips and wires. I’ve been so stressed out the last week.

    Did you do the lift or a shop? Because if it’s any reputable shop they should take the responsibility. But if you did it best thing you could do is unfortunately take everything off and if you still have the problem take it to another dealership if possible and play stupid, you don’t know what happened all of a sudden the dash lite up. Just a suggestion.

    A shop did it but they said they don’t offer warranties. We’ve always taken our vehicles to them and never had a problem until now.

    So everything was fine out of the shop, it’s something that happened after riding around? If so then it’s got to be a lose, disconnected, or broke cable I’m not 100% sure but going 7” would probably stretch most of the cables/hoses to the max. I know for sure on mine with 3” the front brake lines don’t look like they can go much more. Maybe someone on here can confirm if you need extensions on cables/hoses with a larger lift.

    Other people have the same lift and no issues, so it’s something specific they messed up on your truck. It should be fixable, just have to find the issue. I’d go back and complain some more to that shop. I wouldn’t even want to pay them. Did you show them before you left when you picked it up? Try to call another 4x4 shop to see if someone else will look at it.

    That's messed up. If they broke it, they should be responsible for fixing it. That's not warranty work. If it was fine when you dropped it off and jacked up when you picked it up, I'd talk to an attorney. Not that it's worth a court and such, but most places will make it right after a phone call or a letter from an attorney. At least push for a refund.
