I have a 2013 Serento which all the dashlights are on and stay on. We have connected a meter to the computer which shows no codes found. I do not understand I can see a problem on the dash but the meter says no codes found. Anyone else having that problem?

When opening or closing the front passenger door, occasionally all the door locks will engage! I have been locked out so much I have to carry a spare key. Any suggestions on a simple repair?

If the warning light is still on after replacing the speed sensors, there could be a problem with the ABS system or a malfunctioning component.
Here are a few things you can try:

Check the ABS system. The ABS system is responsible for maintaining traction and stability while braking. If there is a problem with the ABS system, it could cause the warning light to come on. You can check the ABS system by having a mechanic diagnose and repair any issues that may be present.
Check the parking brake. The parking brake is responsible for keeping the vehicle stationary when it is parked. If the parking brake is not functioning properly, it could cause the warning light to come on. You can check the parking brake by releasing it and making sure it is fully disengaged.
Check the wiring and connectors. If there is a problem with the wiring or connectors in the ABS system or parking brake, it could cause the warning light to come on. Check the wiring and connectors for any loose, damaged, or corroded wires. Make sure all connections are secure and free of any visible damage.
If you are unable to identify the source of the problem or if the issue persists after checking these components, I recommend having a mechanic diagnose and repair the issue to ensure that the problem is properly addressed and the vehicle is safe to drive.
