ABC car too low

The car has sat for a month and the suspension lowered which I know is normal. When I start the car it will not go out of park and has the ABC stop, vehicle is too low message and does not raise. Other symptoms include the dash buttons on both sides of the hazard do not work. The brake lights stay on with the vehicle running too.
From searching this site I have concluded that it may have a defective front drivers side SAM. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

The first thing I did was replace the battery with a new one that has 900 cold cranking amps. The car runs just fine but dash buttons on both sides of the hazard button do not work and the vehicle is too low. It will not come out of park either.

Could be a Sam or really any other electrical fault caused by draining battery - these cars are always on even when the key is off


These cars hate sitting - disconnect battery entirely if they will be sitting

Hopefully it just needs simething reset and the low voltage didn't do electrical damage
