Default Coincidence or bs?

Okay, I drive a 95 ls, and last week i had to take it in for a brake job. The place I took it to changed the rear pads and machined the rotors and all that, because that was all I wanted them to do to the car. Then yesterday I took the car in to get the cv axles rebooted. Right after I got the car back from the shop, the ABS light comes on. After some testing at the shop, it's determined that a rear ABS sensor has gone bad, as the light wont come on when the rear wheels arent moving, but once the car is driven on the ground the light is back on. So I took the car back to the brake place and had them take a look at it. They said that they couldn't have messed up the sensor when they fixed the brakes, because of its position or something, and that the sensor may have already been on its way out. So I'm wondering, is this possible? The car has 137k on it. Is there any way the sensor couldve gotten messed up during the brake job and then happen to come on several days later? Or is it somehow possible that the cv rebooting had something to do with it? Any thoughts?

they probably fucked it up. When I lowerd my car thr first time I must have fucked up the rear passenger wheel sensor and it threw an abs light. It was still under warrenty so acura fixed it for free. So either try to get them to fix it for free or just replace the wheel sensor it cant be that hard it only took the tech like 15 min.

they should. usually when you dont leave the bleeder open for some reason it triggers the switch and must be reset by the dealer. we had problems like this at times and had to refer to people to the dealer and take care of the bill. go speak to the management.
