ABS question

I replaced the abs module on my 05 g35 and the brakes are still squishy, I was told the computer needs to reset to make them work right. Is this true and if so is it something I can do or do I need to take it to the dealer?

Squishy brakes shouldn't have anything to do with the ABS module unless the lines were open and you got some air in there possibly.

Turn the car off and pump the pedal a few times. Are the brakes still squishy or do they get hard as a rock?

Sounds to me like there is air in the system and it needs to be bled further. What were the symptoms that led to you replace the module.

I was replacing the rotors and calipers and it turned it the calipers were locked down because the abs module was unplugged because it was messed up. When i pump the brakes while driving they work properly and when the car is off and i pump them they are rock hard. The lines have been bled 2 times now
