If you haven't already done so, disconnect the battery to reset the ECU and see if that clears the ABS light,
If this doesn't work, trace the sensor wire back and see if it's damaged.

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Torque it down till it breaks off, then back it off 1/4 turn.

the battery didnt work, but now our step now is to make sure it was infact the rear sensor so im having a friend bring over the computer ASAP.
