    I replaced water pump and then removed negative battery cable to clear the code.. now all my warning lights all stay lit up on the dash and it won’t let me place car into drive or reverse.. I have tried reset this several times by same procedure with no luck.. I know I must of re set all defaults and lost communication with computer. Now I can’t even move the car.. how do I get this all synced again?

    i think you are going to have to scan for trouble codes to find out why it is complaining

    if you have trouble lights, you have more codes. could be related to the pump or the install.
    use tech stream or autel
