tire pressure and dsc lights on

I've been browsing the forums, and I noticed people with wheel speed sensors experience these two lights with the ABS lights. I however only have the tire pressure and the dsc lights on. My C110 scanner pulled these 3 codes. 5E19, 5E5C, and 5E40. Does anyone have any idea? I hit a bad pothole which also bent one of my stock 16in rims. After that incident, the lights started coming on. It would be off when I start the car, but after driving it for a few mins the lights would come back on again.

A faulty steering angle sensor will set off the TPMS and DSC lights.

Did you try resetting the TPMS?

I've tried resetting the TPMS, but it doesn't go away. Where is the steering angle sensor?

RealOEM lists it as a Steering Column part ...

I'll go get another alignment and see if my mechanic can recalibrate the steering angle sensor.
