Default ABS and Traction Control Light on

I have a 2014 Lexus IS350 and I changed the springs to raise the car up some and now my ABS and Traction control lights are on..What steps do I need to turn them off? I have seen several ways and all are different and not sure which way to go> The steering angle sensor hasnt been reset either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.. Thank You

Use an appropriate OBD scan to pull codes. And then use it to reset the steering angle.

Autozone or any other auto parts store should be able to scan it and get you codes. This same thing happened to me and it was an issue with the MAF. Not sure if its the same on the IS350. You will need to pull codes to know for sure. Good luck.

Did you change the springs yourself? Make sure the ABS sensor was reconnected and check for any damage to the wiring.

If you take it to AutoZone or wherever, also, it would be good to mention that you have changed the springs as well.

I think AutoZone only scans for emissions related OBD codes the "Check Engine Light" specific codes.

I don't think AutoZone scans for ABS specific codes or traction specific codes.

I changed the springs myself and 1 ABS wire was damaged and I replaced it.
