I finally took my 1998 ES300 to replace the rear gas struts to Tokico HP. The ride is great now. But there is a problem. The shop said they haven't touched anything but the TRAC OFF warning light keeps blinking and the ABS light is ON. They said the diagnostics scan showed nothing and their scan tool is unable to reset the lights. I tested drove the car myself and found nothing wrong with braking but unable to tell whether traction control is really working or NOT. Before I step into the dealer to find out what is really wrong, does someone have any experience changing their rear struts on their ES300 or other LEXUS models and have similar problems? I've checked all related fuses and foundnothing. Thanks in advance for any info.

They may accidently disconnected one of the ABS wheel speed sensor when doing replacing the strut. The speed sensor is mounted at the rear knuckle(for the rear) and the wire running up to the back package tray, then connected to another connector. Let them go back and look at their work again.
