Please Help ABS Light on after wheel bearing replacement

Hi guys, I had a bad wheel bearing in my 2010 maxima so I replaced the hub which was kind of easy not to bad. Not worth $900 the dealer was going to charge me lol, any ways after I was done I started my car to test drive it and notice that the ABS and VSC light came on. It drives like its new so what could be the problem thanks guys

It could be the sensors of the ab s which is on the bearing. i had a maxima 2007 and tried to change the wheel bearings which i bought at autoparts and i got the abs sensor light on and when i was driving it it didnt let me change gears looks like it got stuck at 1st or 2nd gear. Then i replaced the original nissan bearing and it was working fine. Make sure you got the right bearing because the sensors are in there.

Hard to say, but for this job the FSM cautions "do not pull on wheel sensor harness". Hopefully this is not what happened...?

I asked the guy at auto zone and he said it would work it was oem, i am not sure tho. And i might have hit the sensor while hammering it off i dont think i did but i guess its possible.

Low brake fluid would cause that light as well, check to make sure u didn't tear the brake lines or something.
