Wheel Bearing/Hub Assembly problem!!

[deadheart]

I was getting a humming noise from my passenger front wheel bearings, so I went down and bought a replacement... I installed it, realigned it, and now I have a trifecta of dumb lights lit up: the check engine, traction control, and abs brakes. Im guessing the computer thinks they are not working. Is there a procedure to install a hub other than unbolt the old one, unplug it, replace and replug it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Shoot I might even name my first born after ya! LOL

the wheel speed sensor wire may be damaged or have poor connection to the new hub?
did you mess with the brakes at all? sometimes brake fluid level can trigger traction/advancetrac lights

Make no mistake. With the traction and ABS lights on, your ABS brakes are not working, neither is the traction control. By federal law, if the ABS light is on, the whole ABS system is disabled.

A bad or incorrectly installed wheel speed sensor can cause all three indicated lights to come on.
