Default Check Engine and Trac Off lights on

Help please, love my 1993 GS 300 but now I am having more problems and wondering if our love affair will end

I got new tires on Friday and now finally the car rides the way it should.... ok now to the new problem. The car was turned off and I went to start it up and while it was trying to tunr on the battery cable clamps broke and the car had a sudden turn on and off at the same time. My husband replaced the clamps, we turned the car on and it started making a funny noise and it ran funny. I went on the road with it and as soon as it hit over 80 mph and over 6rpm the check engine light and trac off lights came on at the same time. Can someone shed some light on this for me... thank you

Cool

Turn ignition switch to on
Disconnect short pin from DLC1
Jumper terminals Tc and E1 of DLC1 or DLC2
Read the diagnostic trouble code from the ABS warning light.
Post the code found here.
