Yeah. Um, in order to turn off the ABS light, you will need to find the error codes for your model ES. And than you will need to get to the central unit which controls all the hazard lights. You most likley need the mechanical manual for your car to see which wire is which etc. Or you can just pull the light out, if it annoys you enough.
Oh, you changed it from the ABS to airbag light??
Ok, well why did the airbag light come on in the first place? Did you disconnect the battery terminals and turn the car key to the power accessories, or was there another reason??

Hmm. Well I'm not sure of where the problem lies than. It's not as simple as just finding a switch and than turning the light off. If a car lightly tapped the front bumper, than maybe a wire or circuit was caused to become loose... maybe?
And now thinking about it, and with the reason you gave me, it's probably best to take it to a lexus dealer or someone that can check it out. It's probably not the best idea to ignore that light, when something has actually caused it to malfunction. That's the only reason the airbag light would come on. And it's on for a reason. You don't want an airbag flying into your face at the speed of a bullet while cruising down town.
