ABS/BRAKE/TIRE PRESSURE lights on after brake pad change
What the heck can cause this?
I changed my brake pads on Friday & I figured the lights would eventually turn off but I drove over 100 miles yesterday in my tC & the light's are still on. My tire pressure light's on, too, it's been on since I changed to aftermarket wheels but now it's flashing.
Help me. I have a flippin light show going on....CEL, tire pressure, ABS, BRAKE light, & my airbag light are always on, I know the airbag light won't go off cuz I have an aftermarket steering wheel, same for my CEL cuz of my headers, but what about the other 3? I've never had this issue before.

my tire pressure light blinks for 1-2 minutes after every start up then stays on for the rest of the ride, thats because of the aftermarket rims not havn the TPMs, now about the other three i dont know...forgot sumthin to connect back?
Luckily her 06 tC wasn't equipped with Tire Pressure Monitors, but with custom offset wheels, air bags, and big brake kit, any one of those additions could have damaged or loosened the cable for her wheel speed sensors which is why her ABS light is on and the tire pressure light is blinking constantly.
As for the BRAKE light, check the brake fluid and make sure it is at the proper level. Also, were the rear pads checked? Those may be worn.

I already checked the brake fluid, its right where it needs to be. I didn't check the rear pads but I JUST broke 17k on the car yesterday & you know I always drove my car like a weenie so my rear pads definitely arent worn. I think my ScionTific caravans prove my weenie driving-ness.
Bryan, oh mighty god of suspension/brakes, come help me!!!!! My dang car looks like it has bouncing underglows with all these lights!
