Clearing ABS light sensor replaced

Hi
i had bad front right ABS sensor, and my ABS didn't work. I replaced that sensor, but the ABS light went off. Is there any way to clear it? (ABS are working now).

Pete

PS. Wanted to look in archives but search does not work.

How far did you drive the car after you replaced the sensor?

Did you clear the code by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes?

yes, i disconencted battery for 25 minutes.. light still on. the weird part is, that when I unplug the sensor, it is not on ;-)
is there any way to clear the light with some "key / ignition combination" ? I saw some way to clear Airbag light... is there such a thing for abs?

I guess there may be something else wrong with your ABS then. I would take it to the dealer to have it diagnosed with the Consult-II. Just get them to tell you what the problem is before they try to fix it. You might or might not be able to fix it yourself.
