Hello, so we don't have information on the Opel Astra, but it looks like the U.S. version is the Saturn Astra. I can't be %100 sure on wiring diagrams though unfortunately. But can you tell me what colors the wires are on the connector? It's going to most likely have 2 colors per wire. So, for example, a red wire with a green stripe. and also, how many wires are in the connector and its general location. There must be a socket for it within the reach of the wire the connector is on.
As for the ABS light being on, it's possible that the wrong wheel bearings were installed in the vehicle. Some ABS systems have a reluctor ring inside the wheel bearing that is used for the ABS sensor. If you look down behind the tire there should be a wire running down to a connector on each side and those go to each wheel speed sensor. See if there's a wire plugged into each side or is it just hanging there? Another possibility is that some of these wheel bearings need to be installed in a certain direction for the wheel speed sensor to detect the ring inside the wheel bearing.
If the ABS light was not on before you got the wheel bearings changed, they did something wrong. And you should take it back and they need to fix the issue for free. It was their mistake, not yours.
But if you can get the color of the wires on that connector, I'll try to find out what it goes to, but I can't promise anything. Hopefully it was just something they forgot to plug back in. or it's a test port for something.
The hanging connector looks like it's wrapped in electrical tape. And I'm assuming that wasn't like that before. It should reach wherever it plugs into because that harness isn't that long.
I zoomed in on the picture and couldn't see any wire coloring.
Below is a picture of what the Wheel Speed sensor wiring will look like. It's the only wire in that area.
