Did you in any way bump or disturb the track sensor while changing the hub assembly?
With respect to your scan tool, each manufacturer is different in their particular method of reading failure codes. For example the manufacturer's manual might call for you to turn the key on&off several times to activate the test and scan mode. Another thing you might try is with the battery connected remove the ECM fuse for 5 minutes and see if that clears the code. This is kind of a hale Marry shot but you might try "alldata.com and see if they are giving any information away for free. I had kind of the same problem after installing a disk brake upgrade on an 04 Mustang. One ABS sensor ring inside the rotar hub was 0.010 smaller than the other three and it kept tripping the ABS warning light. That mother scratcher was a real party to find. Good luck guy.

Today I changed the front left hub assembly I.E. wheel bearing on a 2002 Buick Century. I wasn't sure which wheel bearing was bad so I jacked up the front of the car and blocked it so that both wheels were off the garage floor. I then had someone start the car and put it in drive, and accelerate to around 50 MPH . The left wheel was noisier than the right one, so I removed the old left side hub assembly containing the wheel bearing and replaced it with a new one. This did fix the wheel bearing noise, it is gone. However, now the TRAC OFF light on the dash is lit and stays on while the key is on and when the car is being driven down the road. How do I turn the light out? I double checked the wheel sensor and it is plugged in. I hooked up an OBD II scanner but for some reason it wouldn't communicate with the ECM so I couldn't pull any codes. I disconnected the positive cable from the battery for 10 minutes and reattached it. The light was out when I turned the key to the on position and stayed out when the car was started but came back on in 500 feet of travel down the street. The only thing I can think of to do is to try pulling the codes again. This OBD II code reader is fairly new to me. I only used it once before and that was on a 2000 F150 4x4. The truck had a miss. I plugged the scan tool into the port beneath the dash, turned the key to the on possession without starting the truck and then turned the scan tool on. The scan tool gave me a P0301 code. I changed the coil on plug and the miss was gone. When I plugged the scan tool into the Buick, I used the same procedure as for the F150 but for some reason, I got a message that the scanner could not communicate. Does anyone know if the procedure for pulling codes is different for a Ford verses a GM vehicle?
