The cruise control was terminated just like touching the brakes after hitting a pot hole. At the same time, the abs & traction control lights came on in the dash. Lights are still on and cruise control can not be set. Mileage = 64,000. Scanner says that all 4 wheel sensors have set the fault code as well. Any advise ?????
No cruise control plus ABS, & traction control lights on at same time after hitting a pot hole

Well usually if ABS/ Brake Light / TC is lit up means hub bearing needs replacing and or sensor gone bad.
It’s possibly hitting pot hole at speed damaged one of the wheel sensors.
Did you try removing code with scanner ?
Cruise Control wonky ? @BLACKJKU says if system detects issue in wheel sensor or ABS it automatically disengages cruise , I would agree on that .
So fixing sensor should automatically take care of CC.

Yes you loose Cruise Control when your ABS light comes on.
Yes , fixed my comment to reflect yours . Think we posted at exactly the same time .lol
Do you not also lose these functions when the front end is thrown off center?
You could if the steering wheel is off center when driving straight.
My 2012 w 86K does the same thing. No codes regarding wheel sensors. If I cycle the ignition, it resets. After a few cycles it resets the warning lights.
Hasn't happened in awhile but does
the same with my gas cap. Check
engine light if cap gets loose.
Tighten up and light goes away after
a few cycles . .
This happens specifically after hittin a good bump.
Not sure if comment is in regards to my comment
Or your situation .
I understand you have warning lights after hitting
bump at speed. I was just commenting that sometimes
with Jeeps it takes a few on/off cycles and warning
lights go away .
As with my gas cap. Don't have to hit a bump.
Sometimes works it's way loose .

I would check the negative terminal on the battery before any other troubleshooting.
Make certain that it is TIGHT & cannot wobble, wiggle, vibrate, etc.
Just had this similar issue w/our ‘15 JKU.
That factory battery clamp is sketchy.

Thanks. I’ve cleaned it up with wire brush etc but agree the clamps are pretty poor. Also the last owner added so many extra wires so the clamps in various ways. I’ve ordered some new ones. If anyone has any they recommend please let me know. Cheers

That’s an understatement, it's crap.....
Not a bad Idea, just a poor design execution. The old fashion battery terminals have worked well for decades. Why do these so-called engineers waste their time trying to save a penny, when they should be designing in better reliability.
In short, because they are instructed to as part of their objectives. Trust me, no engineer I've worked with wants to take cost out just for cost's sake. Unfortunately, that is the mentality of the OEMs - cost, cost, cost. At the working level of the company the short-sited approach of immediate gains at the loss of long term durability is an obvious poor use of resources.

Did you ever get this fixed? it's been a few years. I had a similiar issue and found the right front wheel sensor to be the issue. Once replaced, everything is back to normal ...
