You are Awesome! This fixed my abs, brakes, traction control, cruise control and collision warning lights reset. Mine was working, went in a store, came back out and all my warning lights were on. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Mine is a 2013 Ford Edge!

I have a 2010 Ford fusion. I had a sensor taken out of my tire . Ever since my power steering service now and advance Trac popped up. Also saying tire pressure sensor fault. I replaced the power steering because it was so hard to drive. Got it back three days later. Drove home working. Bam by the time I got home it locked up again. This is 45 min later. I know my power steering doesn't need replacement. I just got it fixed. Something is throwing it off. My car even stalls when driving. Tires spin and want go. It jerks back. I cut off and back on then take off. Some times, well most of the time I have to keep doing it. Horrible! If this can reset on my fusion power steering and advance Trac then I will be saved from money. The replacement of the steering broke me. I have no more I can do with this car. Please let me know how your fusion is doing and If this is what you were going through. If this helps for real I will be so happy!

Had already changed Right Rear speed sensor (as per scan report) (ABS) but it was showing same malfunction ABS service error. My car is keyless. But pressed once without using foot . Fruitless. Just a small query , do I need to press brake padels after removing battery cord.....? When I rejoined battery, it did not get all icons back , so pushed power switch again.

I started off by changing the battery ($200.00) because the one they sold they car with was just a $60.00 car battery AND it said they battery wasn't being charged. So actually, I needed to do that in good time anyway.
