New ABS sensor or coding?

Hi All,

I changed my front wheel bearings yesterday and in the process, slightly damaged (put a chamfer on one side-but didn't break through the plastic) one of the ABS sensors.

I've driven down the road expecting the ABS lights to go off, but they have remained on.

Two questions:

1. Have I damaged the sensor such that it needs to be replaced and does not require coding again?

Or, 2. Does it just need the ABS module to be coded again because I disconnected the ABS sensors?

If anyone asks or is remotely interested, I didn't remove the sensor from the hub as they were stuck in there good (probably since the car was born some 116k miles ago) so didn't want to damage (ha, the irony!) them trying to get them out.

Cheers
