Did you reset your ride height/level sensors after the lift through forscan?

You need OBD cable - https://www.amazon.com/OBDLink-EX-FORScan-OBD-Adapter/dp/B081VQVD3F/ref

Currently, I have the same error message. It started last year after the dealership installed a leveling kit. The error message quickly disappeared. I had larger tires installed on my truck two weeks ago and it returned. I have three DTCs. The one of major concern to me is a "signal invalid" DTC to the front height sensor. I verified all the connections to the sensor were connected and not accidentally disconnected during the tire install. They all looked fine other than some dirt I was able to clean. I assume this is causing the other DTCs not allowing the truck to recalibrate. I have an appointment with the dealership on Thursday. I hope you find a resolution to your issue. If you're interested, I'll keep you informed on my progress.

Hi there, Did you reset your ride height/level sensors after the leveling kit through forscan?

Quick update: Dealership diagnosed the issue this morning. After they completed the required testing and attempted to reprogram, the Tech determined both ride height sensors need to be replaced. The parts are ordered and I am scheduled to return on Monday for replacement.

Another quick update: The dealership replaced both the front and rear ride height sensors. They were still unable to reprogram the HCM. They have ordered a new HCM, but it may take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks since they order it straight from the manufacturer. This week was a little rough in terms of time spent at the dealership. I arrived the first time this week to get the ride height sensors replaced and they realized they ordered the wrong part once they had my truck. I returned the next day for install. When they realized they needed a new HCM, they located one at a nearby dealership. I returned the next day for install of the HCM only to find out it wasn't the correct HCM for my truck. Hopefully replacing the HCM will fix my issue and hopefully it happens soon.

If you are all still interested in my saga related to this thread, I have a quick update. Even with the logistical issues, the dealership was great to work with and they were able to find a fix. Initially, they replaced both ride height sensors; however, the HCM would not reprogram. Today, they installed a new HCM and it still would not reprogram. What I was told was when the leveling kit was installed.a year ago, it may have caused some issue with the functionality of the sensor. I was told they relocated the front bracket for the sensor which allowed it to function properly. I am not sure exactly how or where they moved the bracket, but that is what I was told and I no longer have the error message. I will inspect a little more tonight when I get home.
