It sounds like you pulled out the wiring or disconnected an ABS wheel speed sensor. I would raise the front of the car up and look at the leads for the ABS wheel speed sensors to make sure they are connected here are the locations.

Also, if the sensors are in good shape let's run the ABS codes by following this guide:
