Hello,
ABS light was on with a message of ABS Module on the dash screen. Mechanic changes an ABS sensor and now the ABS light is off, as well as the ABS Module message. However, now I'm getting the message "Electrical Fault" and the warning buzzer is beeping nonstop; fuel, battery & air gauges not working; cruise control not working; fan clutch remains on at all times. Brought it back to mechanic and he says my dashboard might be bad. I feel like the issue is somehow related to the work they've done. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like they messed with the settings in the engine. Did they do any programming or mess with the engine parameters? All those things will happen when the 1939 multiplexing parameter is changed or turned off in the engine.
CB79 Thanks this. -

If all that honestly did work before, and now they don't, then that repair shop obviously did something. Anything can happen and programming can get messed up any time you plug into these if you don't know what you are doing or run the battery down, or unplug while there is still data transmission and so on. I wasn't there, so I won't point fingers, but it is very possible and easy for them to have accidentally done this.

Well, the problem has been fixed and it only cost $100. Turns out I had two bad jumpers on my batteries and a bunch of corrosion. I guess it really was just a coincidence that this happened right after they changed that ABS sensor. I can't believe it was something so simple.

You are asking this in the International Truck section. Ask this in the Freightliner section.

If you're using Verizon ELD disconnect it and restart your truck it should work after that
