Abs light .99 Explorer 4.0l 4wd

-Normal maintenance. Changed front pads, didn't do any damage, just replaced pads. ABS light came on the next day. Found out drv side rotor needed changing. Replaced rotors and pads, both sides. ABS light still on. Light never came on until pads were changed. Might be something else in the system but as I find out, its always something you did during repairs. Maybe it was time for the rear sensor in the diff to go, Don't know but will check. New pads and rotors up front. new pads in back. Light glowing like it was the 4th of July. I probably messed something up don't know what. Never happened before during pad change. Looked at front wheel sensors during repair. Noticed the front sensors werr held in by a hex bolt. Do they just pull out or are they pressed in? You guys know more than me, I'm just trying to keep the vehicles rolling.

Thanks for any help

There is an ABS sensor that you could have gotten dirt on or knocked the wires lose on the back of that sensor or knocked the sensor itself lose.

I'm pretty sure I didn't do any damage when I did repairs but I'm going to pull the wheels and double check anyway, maybe I missed something. thanks
