Unhook your battery for 30+ Minutes. Then it should reset itself otherwise you will need a scan tool with ABS compatibility to reset it!

I replaced the RF speed sensor on my 2004 GMC sierra 2500HD and the ABS light would not go off. Tried using my POS scan tool but it was not capable of speaking with the ABS computer. Had a friend at the GMC dealer shop and he was able to use his Tech 2 scan tool to reset the code. Even then the light did not go out until I drove the truck for about 10 minutes at over 7 mph.
