So I encountered a strange issue with my truck today. 2022 2500 Diesel, 65k miles. I was driving and all the sudden the service power steering light came on, along with a message in the message center. Power steering seem to work fine though. Then I got a message to service automatic emergency braking system. The AEB message was popping up once every 1-2 seconds so I went into the settings menu and disabled it.
Throughout the remainder of the drive I proceeded to get basically every other service ____ system message that the cluster could give... Abs, traction control, parking sensor, 4wd, etc. additionally, when the blinkers are on they are flashing at a random rate , not the normal cadence you would expect. (Something like normal blink, normal blink, short blink, short blink, long blink, normal blink... totally random)
At this point I thought I should turn the truck off, wait 5 minutes and start it again to see if It would clear any computer errors. This time when I started the truck, the power steering actually didn't work, I could steer the truck but it took much strength. I was still far from home so I kept driving, and 15 minutes later the power steering system turned back on. I still got the occasional random error message on the cluster though.
Once I got home, I tried to disconnecting the batteries and leaving it for 30 minutes to do a harder reset on the computers in the truck. When I started the truck the power steering indicator came right back on, although this time the power steering worked as normal. I've since started and stopped the truck 5 or 6 times, and every time the power steering light comes on, I'm still getting occasional strange warnings. I've checked the power steering fluid and it looks good and is within the okay range.
Has anyone else run into an issue like this? Only other relevant information is that we have recently gotten alot of snow - like 25"+ in the last 24 hours. Perhaps snow got in somewhere it shouldn't be? I called the dealer service line and left a message as they are closed today, but if there is a proposed fix, I would love to try it before going to the dealer and having to pay
