    The wheel speed sensor /Abs sensor or harness may have become damaged on bearing installation. A scan tool is needed to retrieve the trouble codes stored. Even though both warning lights are on it is most likely one fault.

    Get a look also at the ABS indicator ring, which is probably on the axle shaft. Make sure the teeth are not damaged in any way, and that the ring is seated correctly still. If the clearance between the sensor and ring has changed, or the teeth on the ring cannot be read the same way, it too could be at fault.
