Electrical issues after disconnecting battery on 2000 CLK430

Hello!
I disconnected the negative post on my battery on my 2000 CLK430, now I have an ABS and BAS warning light on and the windows will not roll up, Can anyone please assist with this? Prior to this there were no issues. Thanks!

Shawn, you probably want to post in the W208 forum as that's what model you have, but regardless, the ESP and auto-close window reset is the same. To reset ESP, start the engine and then turn the steering wheel fully lock to lock. This recalibrates the steering angle sensor. To reset the windows, do this for each one: Lower the glass, and then pull up on the switch fully and hold it up until the window is fully raised, then hold it there for five seconds. This will reset the auto-up function. Assuming you aren't driving a cabriolet, you'll need to do the same with the sunroof - open it, then press and hold the button in the close position and hold it there five seconds after full close. FYI, reset procedures should also be in your owner's manual.
