ABS LIGHT?

Hello, change the front drivers calliper last thursday, bled the brakes everythings was good, drove 40 kms and the abs light came on, parked it over night then the light went off and came back on a few minute of driving later. Then this morning i drove about 20 kms and the light came on again. Any thoughts on where i should start with this before i go replacing sensors?

will a reguler ob2 reader pick it up or does it need to go to a real scanner to find the problem?

Have you checked for a bad bearing? That was bad on the side the sensor showed.
I am guessing a front sensor since you had recent work done. Make sure you dont have a pinched or worn sensor wire. Would hurt to hook up a sensor and see if it throws a code at you
