Abs light after brake work

Just replaced front brake hoses and rear wheel cylinders on my 97 f150. After bleeding the system muliple times, the abs light is lit when it never was before. Any suggestions? I know there is a sensor that usually goes bad, but could the brake work have caused it to fail? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Light went out after a 10 minute drive and hasn't come back. The brakes feel great so I really don't think there's any air left in the lines. I'll try and get the code if it comes back. Thanks!
