Help! ABS Light On.

I just installed lowering springs yesterday. Then today my ABS light just turned on when I was driving on the freeway. Did anyone happen to occur this situation before? I'm getting irritated about this abs light. I tried resetting it also but it did not work. Help pls. Thanks.

I'v gone through a couple of speed sensors. With mine it would reset then when I hit around 40mph it would trip the code. It was fixed under warranty.

i would go back and double check that they are plugged in all the way before I started worrying about anything else...
because it happened after you put your springs in makes me think that something wasn't attached properly when you put it back together...

nice, you got it fixed. it makes sense to check what you did if a problem arises right after a modification.
