Default VSC + ABS + VSC Off lights after brake change

Hi everyone!
First post here. Recently had the brake pads/rotors replaced on my wife's RX350 with OEM parts at a nearby indy shop. Since then, there's been an intermittent VSC + ABS + VSC Off light when going over bumpy roads. It sounds to me like a wheel speed sensor.

Does anyone have any detailed pics or tutorials on how to access/check/change the wheel speed sensor? Is there only 1 per axle?

Thanks!

I have exact same problem, disconnected battery then changed the front brake pads after putting back everything and turn on the car, Check DSC light, ABS light are on. Any thoughts what could go wrong?

This happened with a 05 Equinox I owned previously, what I found out was the Speed Sensor was easily replaced DIY although placing the Sensor correctly was impossible with a play of something like .025 mm, anything out of range triggered the ABS light.
I had to replace the entire hub as it came with the wheel bearing & sensor positioned, no more ABS light on. A faulty wheel bearing doesn't help anything either.
Not sure if this type of difficult measurement applies to the RX if the Sensor is replaced or cleaned, I tried both with the Equinox with no positive results.
