[V8] ABS Light

Hope you guys can help.  My v8 has always 'set' the 'ABS off' light during
spirited driving.  I always thought that it was because of dirty teeth on
a drive shaft.  I had the outer cv boot on the drivers side go bad and I
had to remove the cv joint to replace it.  When I had the cv out I cleaned
the teeth on that side only.  I don't belive that I touched the sensor at
all - apart from wiping the grease from the face of it very lightly.  When
I put it all back together the 'ABS off' light comes on almost instantly
when driving, not just under hard driving.  Any Ideas.  I am going to try
and test the sensor soon, and If I need a sensor then I will buy the truck
part for cheaper.  But I just can't belive that I did anything to it while
under there.  I also need to try to clean the teeth on the passengers side
and see if that helps - they are just almost impossible to get to without
removing the cv joint.  I will also try to adjust the clearance to spec as
soon as I get a chance.  If anyone thinks one of these steps are more
productive than the others, please let me know.

       Thanks,
          Jason
