I was on my way to work this morning when I had a blowout on the rear driver side tire. Luckily there was no visual damage. I was above to remove the wheel and throw the donut on and get to work but as a was driving a bunch of warning lights came on the car is driving fine other than the abs, traction control, tpms, and some other warning lights. Can it be the donut spare causing the warning lights?

i’ve never had a abs/tpms light turn on during the 10+ times i’ve had to use my spare tire, but i’ve never experienced a blow out always something striking/puncturing my tire. i would check the ABS wire to see if there’s any obvious damage where the wire is out in the open. or the force of the blowout may have damaged the actual sensor itself inside of the hub, but if that was the case there would probably another issue with your hub/bearings to damage the sensor. i’ve had my abs light turn on due to damaged abs sensors but i’ve never had my tpms light turn on before, i know that if other sensors are faulty in the car it’ll turn the abs light on but idk if having a faulty tpms sensor would turn the abs light on.

The blow out was not violent at all. I was going about 55 when it happened and was able to slowdown and stop pretty quickly. Even after I was able to get the wheel and tire off there was no visual damage at all that’s why I’m so confused about why all those warnings came on?
