Possible brake adjustment issue. Did you accidentally damage or unplug an ABS sensor?

Turns out on this model you have to use an electronic scan tool to essentially "disengage" the electronic e-brake. If you don't it flips all kinds of alarms and codes. My local Subaru specialist said I had 38 codes.
