Did you ensure that the two wheel sensors were plugged back in properly?

You could have the BCM scanned to pull the proper ABS codes to help your diagnosis.

Or you could just pull the light bulb out of the dash.

Yeah I should have mentioned that, whoops. There are no (affordable) ABS scan tools available - it's a dealer/shop kind of deal.

... and a dealer/shop will charge an hour of labor which can be anywhere from $90 to $110.

Semi on topic?

I did a small burnout in my z and the abs inop light came on.
Did I damage the brake system?

Check your third brake light, if thats out it will put up a ABS light.
