    Not sure what the issue is. Did you call Kenworth?

    Looks more like a engine fault .. and possibly a abs sensor which triggers other faults that rely on the wheel speed sensors

    We have 2018 579 peterbilts , we have random crap happing all time , most times they just disconnect the battery’s and it goes away.
    It’s always fun driving down the road and the 4 ways and high beams get stuck on and won’t go off.

    looks to me like there's a ground problem or short in the gauge cluster. The turn signals are lit up along with the rest of the crap is what makes me think ground.

    While it sounds great for a driver to try to figure out what's wrong, the truck is telling the driver to stop the truck and not move it, I would think that stopping it, calling the company and having it towed to kw to get looked at is the best move.

    Guy I drove for spent $14K on a T700 with electrical problems. Over a month in the shop. Brutal. Warranties only cover stuff with fluid. The know better.
