1) run diagnostics to determine which on
2) my guess is you failed to remove the abs sensor on one of the front wheels and damaged the wire going to the sensor.
3) If you got lucky, maybe the sensor is just dirty. Or your axles don't have the abs ring gear.

alright, my g.f.'s dad is the guy that did em, i'll say that im 'learning' more about the 'go' asspects now than the 'show'. so what im getting at is would anyone know where i can find the sensors and if i just left it alone and reset my ecu, would it be ok? thanks for the help.

1) You have either installed one or both axles that do not have the ABS pick up ring on them.
2) You damaged the ABS sensor on the hub.


My vote goes to #1, it's an easy mistake to make.
