I noticed after i jacked my vehicle up removed my passenger side wheel hub and pads rotor, to replace them, i tried to crank my vehicle and prndl error and no park assist showed up on my dash display. I've checked all my fuses. Fine. Is this showing up and causing it mot to crank because my wheel hub, brake pads, etc., isn't put back together yet? I haven't read anything about that being an issue. Is it possible because my wire isn't hooked up that's connected to ny wheel hub? Please help. I've checked everything else going crazy.

Hmm, nothing you did with the bearing hubs will cause this, did something happen under the car near the transmission, (drivers' side) when you were doing to work? Here is the location for the part that is having an issue, please check the electrical connector at the switch as well. Also, try to run through the gears using the shifter a few times as well. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response.

Thank you so very much. I was wondering if I'd get a response back thank you so much. Maybe it will turn over after i try everything. Thank you. Oh, and what is the cheapest diagnostic tool scanner that will help me out. I've tried 3 different ones won't show up anything.

You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Here is the scanner for $26.00:

This will scan all systems and give codes, did you check the electrical connector?
