    so i was driving and one of the little hoses popped off for my psi gauge in the engine i think.. i reattached it and when it blew off my dash has a steady check engine and traction control light on and a flashing cruise control light so idk if it will go off after a few times running or what like i cant even engage or disengage my traction control or my cruise control

    disconnect your battery and let it sit for a bit and the ECU will re-set.

    So the problem occurred when the hose fell off correct? And you made sure that it connected back to it's original spot? You can reset the ECU by disconnecting the battery, hit the brake to drain any power left. Then reattach the battery. I don't know if it will help but it's worth a try. Also it would be a good idea to put the make model year mods etc.

    its just a vac leak like BroCo said reset your ecu, if you disconnect the batt and turn on your headlights it will clear it. If its a hard code the light will come back on asap if not dont think twice about it. When I reset my ecu I touch the + and - together its a hard reset and will bring it back to stock 100% if you have a tune it could screw up the tune.

    You can disconnect the battery and step on the brake.

    Did you fix it? Can you take a picture of the engine bay where vacuum hose was connected and how you put it back together. I could help you but I am far away from CR. Just send me a picture and I could suggest on the solution. If you still have issues I could log your car and see if there is anything else going on. It seems like it's just vacuum line came off loose from BOV just put it back together and reset ECU.
