Changed my rotors, brakes and did the DIY Brake Judder fix and...

now my ABS light is on along with the VDC OFF and SLIP light. What the hell happend? Just a run down of what I did...

Removed front hubs, replaced with new shield. Put on new rotor then pads. Done

Removed rear rotors and pads and replaced with new rotors and pads. Done

Put it all back together and I got those lights. Help!!!

The brake fluid looks to be almost at Max. Maybe I messed up a sensor in the process?

Does the braking feel right when you press the pedal?
Hopefully you didn't damage one of the ABS leads. Have you checked them to make sure you didn't pinch or cut?
Try disconnecting the negative battery post for a few minutes.

well 99% of the time these lights come on when the brake fluid is low so the first step id take would be to add fluid to make sure it is at max(since u said its close to max).

Also when u changed the brakes and were pushing back the pistons did u have the master cylinder cap open to allow the pressure out?

^ good points.
I as$-u-med that anyone doing their own brake job knows enough to do/check those things.

So basically my *** didn't take out the abs sensors before removing the hubs and put the hub back in after installing the new plate. The abs sensor was bent/cracked backwards. So I loosened the 4 bolts holding the hub in place and was able to get the abs sensor out. Then tightened up the 4 bolts and placed the abs sensor back in. Works perfectly now. Thanks guys
