ABS, BAS, BAS Warning light; new solution

HI, I had a messge for the malfonction of ARS,ABS, and BAS after passing in a pot holes 1 month ago, I've check everythig; clean the speed sensor on all whell, test each of them to see if they produce impulsion when the wheel is turuning, change my brake light switch nothing turn the warning light off. I dicide to go to Joe Bassili in Montreal. There they put the Star diagnos syst on the car and find a code faor the selenoid valve af the ARS control unit. With more attention we find 2 loose bolt on the electronic part of the unit. ( see picture) He tigth the bolt and no more problem with that.
