Default 1999 camry LE w/ tein s-techs

hi all,
i installed a set of tein s-techs on my '99 camry and after driving for a while, the ABS light came on. manual says to "see local toyota dealer ASAP" however, ive been driving it, as it is my daily driver, and havent noticed any differences in drive/stopping. has this happened to anyone else or can anyone advise?
thanks!

you may have damage the abs sensor while you your installing your suspention. its comman to over stretch the wirewhen you switched parts. you will need to get the codes, im just guessing what happened.

You have three possibilities:
1. ABS sensor or sensors were damaged during the install $150 ea.
2. ABS ECU was shorted out $850.00
3. ABS sensor wiring was stretched/ torn. 2.5 hrs labor

most likely #1. Buy a Haynes manual for $16
Read Section 9-3 and 9-6, you will be able to pull codes off ypur dash lights...and this will tell you exactly what was faulted.
Plus you will be able to Reset your Trouble Light.

I had this happen to me on my Stech KYB Gr2 install.
