You probably tore or disconnected one of the abs sensor wires while doing the work In the back.

Double check your wires and plugs. Use a VOM meter. I'm sure the problem is there.

If you confirmed that your problem is an ABS sensor and not a torn wire as I suggested, than you can try cleaning them first.

Sometimes Break dust or other contaminants get in there and prevent them from working properly.

Since however it happened right after you changed your rear struts, I still bet on a torn ABS wire or a disconnected plug.

you are absolutely right.. I changed the rear left abs/speed sensor I asked the dealer, quoted me $282 what..? So I went to the junkyard I found a 2000 toyota Camry, removed the parts and check the continuity with my volt meter ,I checked the parts no. (good thing identical to my old part no.)then replaced it..then drive around the block ,then suddenly stop the blinking, gone the indications lights..I so happythanks again man..
