You fixed it?

I somehow doubt that removing one ABS wheel sensor is what I would consider a fix. Why are people always trying to avoid a trip to the dealer to repair a safety issue..under warranty no less? What you have done, if I read it correctly, is disable an ABS sensor to one of four wheels. The ABS now cannot read the fact that one of your wheels is locked up and sliding and cannot administer anti-lock braking to that one wheel. In addition to this being a poor attempt at a home fix to a complex system it may also be UNSAFE and you may find out just how unsafe the next time you need the help of ABS. My advise is get it fixed correctly.

OK I get it...

I re-read your post(once again) and I believe you state you removed the sensor..attached or re-attached the wire then replaced the sensor. If so good, if not, above post applies.
