    I have a 2010 Prius .The ABS sensor on my front drivers side’s wire was ripped out taking the connectors with it. I replaced the sensor with its pigtails and connector, and the connector with its pigtails on the abs side. I still have the light on even after driving it. Right now the pigtail connecting the wire to the ABS is just twisted on. Anyone have a suggestion?

    I don't have a suggestion except to maybe use the paper clip trick to reset the light, but I have a question.

    Where did you find the replacement connector on the ABS side?

    First thought is did you read then erase the codes using a scantool or app with a compatible obd2 adapter? Disconnecting the 12V battery might clear the codes as well. If the warning light comes back on you want to read the codes.

    Possible problems could be that the wires on your connector pigtail are reversed, or maybe the replacement sensor is no good. (NEW= Never Ever Worked).
