could be low brake fluid, sensor malfunction, or an issue with the ABS system.

check for the armada of the same year and use the code you found as they are the same build for the most part and birthed on the same line.

hello thanks for the reply So the fluid is good believe its the steering angle sensor code 1144 is there a way to reset this ,ie pressing cruise resume 5x then set 5x, or holding vdc down when starting, would this effect the performance or gas millage if allways in slip and vdc off, the rearend would be locked in posi or in auto would 4x4 be engaged at highway speeds when not needed , not sure if i should try to repair this or leave it untill spring then pull out steering column to replace sensor?? also pull dash and repair loose tach needle also this was a wreck on right side and needed some adjusting for alignment steering wheel was off by 30 degrees
