Warnings after Valve cover gasket Replacement

I tackled a Valve Cover replacement on my 2014 X5 (F15 N55), seemed simple enough after reading everything that needed to be done. I unplug the batter at left it unpluged for over 24 hours, however I don't think there was anything sensitive during the entire project that may cause these issues.
  • Collision Warning System Inactive
  • Pedestrian Warning Malfunction
  • Chassis stabilization Drive Moderately

these warning were not being displayed before I started. Did i accidently moved or unplugged something? any assistance is greatly preactivated.. thank you in advance.

DomMuc,

thank you for the reply, I actually did that to no avail, it is worth a try to do it again.

I did have a friend with an autel scanner and was able to reset the Steering Angle sensor, this remove the Chassis stabilization Drive Moderately warning. however the other two remain.

Update - these warnings were non-stop for a while, it seems they have been finally cleared after multiple resets of the steering angle sensor (i think), i even lifted the vehicles front end and let ISAT+ perform a calibration. So after 10 or so days, yesterday was the day without warning.
