Disconnected Battery.

Recharged Battery, over night, now have reconnected starts fine, BUT ABS warning light on Engine light on and cannot select automatic gears without using shift lock override

Stwart,

Sorry this is rather coming late. I had a similar problem with my 1999 GS300 and solved the problem by replacing/toggling in a fuse that was making partial contact. This is just a fuse problem. Check your fuse in the driver's compartment and replace any blown fuse or toggle in every fuse to seat in proper.

Goodluck!
