I have a 2005 jeep cheroke 5.7 and the throttle boody red lighten bolt light keeps coming on it just started 2 days ago a day after I put new brakes on could there be a connection and If I take it to do a diagnostic check can they retrieve a code if the light is not flashing at the time. The traction light also flashes when the red light flashes

The battery could be bad even if replaced, get it load tested most auto parts stores can do this as well as scanning for codes they normally do tha tfor free.
