Default Desperate for help!!!!!! ABS reset

Yesterday, I had the car jacked up on all four corners and put it in gear to try to diagnose what felt like a wheel bearing issue. No wheel bearing issue, but now the ABS and VSC lights are on.

In the past, and this vehicle and others, I have used a jumper in the OBDii port to reset VSC, no big deal, but that won’t work cause the ABS light is on.

This is absolutely critical that I reset the ABS, because a Lexus dealer is looking at this car Monday and one of the problems is an ABS activation at low speeds. If they can’t document it because the system is inactive, the person i bought it from won’t fix it

please help

I think I remember something an older models about jumping “TC“ and “V1” on the under hood diagnostic port, but there is no under hood diagnostic port on this car
