Computer Error From Lift

2017 350 diesel. I put on a 4 in. lift and 35's. I'm now 2 getting errors on my data screen. 1. Service Advance Trac and 2.Hill Descent Control Fault.

I took to dealer and they said it was because of the steering angle sensor and ABS and there is nothing they can do. Has this happened to anyone else? What are the solutions? Thanks.

yes, do a search, there is a couple threads on this. Basically the module is damaged from the lift and needs to be replaced. It has been said that when doing a lift, the negative battery cables need to be pulled to not cause damage to the module.

they can run diagnostics on it and see if the module is actually damaged. if not, they can calibrate the sensor.
also check your abs sensor wires. I had a tire rub through one of them and it created all kinds of faults
