Default abs issue after new brake pads

I changed out the front brake pads on Sun and bedded them according to what I read online and the abs comes on under normal firm braking pressure. It never came on before new pads unless of course I was braking hard which it's supposed to do. Any clue?

The ABS starts working or the light comes on? Could be the sensor got damaged during your brake change.

The abs comes on during moderate braking. The low trac light somes on the same times but it's goes off. I'm gonna clean the plug and terminal and test the sensor. I found on a search online on how to test a abs sensor.
