Hello. I need to know how if there's a way to reset the ABS light on the vehicle listed above 2jz-ge non-vvti?
I change the rear brake pads, but I don't remember if the light was on or not.
Thanks,
Juan Marin

Unfortunately, if the light is on now and all you did was change the pads, then I suspect we damaged or left the speed sensor unplugged. We need to check codes and see why it is on. Once we now the codes we can take the next steps.

Sounds great. You may want to just go back to the wheel that you replaced pads on and make sure the ABS connector/wheel speed connector is connected properly.

Here is a video on ABS codes specifically that may help as well:

Hello Kasekenny1, I try to pull out the codes, but the check engine light stay blinking constantly. I did it like the image below.
Can you tell me why?

Okay. I think that is telling you that you have no engine codes but ABS codes I believe you are to jump TC and E1. Looks like that will cause the ABS light to flash to give you the code. You count the first flashes and then there is a pause and then count the next flashes. If there are more then one code it will pause for 3 seconds and then flash the next one.

Hello kasekenny1. Sorry for the late.
I pullout the OBD code 52 for the Lexus gs300 1995 knock sensor signal.
The instrument cluster melt (literally) but with your help I can make the check engine light came back to life and pullout the code.
I found that the TPS is bad too.
Thanks.
I need a little more help. Can you send me information to set the new TPS and the location of the knock sensor and wiring diagram to make some test I get that Lexus to the road again?
Thank you so much for all your help.

Okay. Here is the process for adjusting the throttle body/sensor but we need to get a new post started as these issues are no longer related to the title and others are not going to find the solution to these items under this post.

So the knock sensor and diagrams need to be a new post. Here is a link for that:
