Some Nissan Frontier owners report experiencing issues with the SLIP light illuminating and power loss after replacing the battery and positive terminal breaker. These problems may stem from a faulty wheel sensor, defective ABS rings, a malfunctioning ABS control module, or faulty wiring. Additionally, the VDC light might activate after a power loss and should turn off once it completes its self-check, while the SLIP light indicates a failure during this process. Owners have also noted that problems with the charging system, such as incorrect voltage output, can cause multiple warning lights, including the BRAKE, ABS, VDC off, and SLIP lights, to illuminate. Furthermore, disconnecting the battery can lead to a loss of steering wheel position memory, particularly if the wheels are not aligned straight, potentially triggering the VDC light. It is recommended that owners check the wheel sensors, ABS components, wiring, and charging system to diagnose and resolve these issues, and if problems persist, consulting a professional mechanic or Nissan dealership is advisable.
