'95 E40D, hard shift, no speedo, help!

'95 F150, 5.8L, 4x4, E40D, new fluid and filter, new rear axle. Previous owner put in a non-ABS axle, and so the sensor was dangling when I bought the truck. I put in the correct axle and plugged the sensor in. Before, the tranny shifted hard, but it worked. Now, with new axle, the ABS light blinks on and off - haynes manual says Keep alive circuit not working, and module needs replacing? Correct? THe tranny shifts somewhat better, but the speedo still doesn't work. Arghghghgh! What's a garage monkey to do? Did driving with the non-abs axle ruin the module? Or did it disconnect itself and is in limp mode? Thanks for the advice in advance. Dave.

Thumbs down help???

Well, thanks for the 'help' guys, but I figured out the problem myself. The junkyard axle was from a '94 F150 and I left the sensor on it due to laziness on my part. It didn't work, so I installed the other sensor from the truck and everything works. Keep up the good work.
