Default ABS & Traction Control Light

So 3 weeks ago I installed XenonDepot lights (pretty sure this is it) I drove with it for a week and I dropped it off at the shop for a week. When I got the car back I see a CEL,TCS, and ABS light. I unplugged my battery overnight and it was off but it turned back on and I tried the window reset and that didn't work. Any ideas? Oh yeah and my CEL turned off (getting read tomorrow)

Can anybody lead me in the right direction?

Cliffs
-Installed XenonDepot lows
-2 Weeks after I get a CEL, TCS, ABS (CEL is gone now)
-Tried unplugging battery and resetting windows no luck (not sure if i did the window reset the right way)

I had intermittent error lights like I think you are describing. Mine were due to a short in one of the rear brake light harnesses. I have an '06 IS350. I don't know if they remedied the situation after my MY, but it is worth a look. When I took it to the dealer, they said the error codes were stored even though the light would come on and off again: if i remember correctly, it was off when I left the car with them. Hope this helps or at least lets you eliminate some possibilities.
