Default Afs, abs, traction control lights after lowering

So I recently lowered my car and now the afs, abs and traction control lights are all on? I've been trying to research this but couldn't find an exact answer.. I know that with the afs you have to adjust the control arm, but does that fix the traction control also? And for the abs my friend told me it was a wire. Whenever we were installing the springs we saw that one of the wires were ripped apart and figured that was the problem. Would I need to replace it with a new one or just connect them back together? Any help would be great, thanks

The AFS fix could find on some DIY thread on here if you used search.

The Speed sensor is also easy fix. You have 2 wires, one for each pin in the hub bearing. You may need to take apart the plastic connector to determine which wire go to which pin. That's all you need.
Remember to seal it after you done. You could use 100% silicon (high temp) to seal it. Good luck!!!
