Exclamation Wheel bearing/ABS

I have a 2001 Suburban 1500 4 wheel drive. The abs and brake light have been on since I bought it. I replaced a bad wheel bearing today and thought it would shut the lights off but it hasn't. Can anybody help.
Thanks

It can also be the VSS(vehicle speed sensor) also known as the abs sensor causing the abs light to come on. Check and clean them first.

Doesn't the new bearing come with a new WSS (harness)?

Have the code read to determine which Wheel location the problem is occuring from.

The wheel bearing came with a new abs sensor. I found out the problem with the ABS lights. Someone took out the fuse. So I replaced the fuse and the lights went out. But I still don't have 4 wheel drive. I have replaced the actuator. I have no other ideas. This is my first push button 4 wheel drive.
