Default Esp bas light help

The ESP BAS light and skidding light has been on for two weeks now and I can't figure out how to turn it off. Any one know what the deal is. Also the steering wheel is turned to the right. This is after a offroad trip. Help plz

Same thing just happened to my 2008 2-Door. ESP and BAS lights came on and stay on.
Just put a 3" lift on less than two months ago. My steering wheel seems very straight. How far off does it have to be to cause this issue?

Well you have a 3" lift so your axles are probably off-center. Do you have an adjustable track bar?

Mine come on intermittingly, usually in high winds.

Soon as you correct the steering wheel it will go off after a few miles of driving. I had the same problem even after my gears and tire size were corrected. If you have a procal tuner or something it will take care of it.

Yes, my FT 3" Long Arm kit is fully adjustable. I also have a ProCal unit that could help center wheel..
Drove the jeep today and lights went off and stayed off. I'll see if it repeats and make adjustments accordingly.
