Default abs and brake light

I broke the abs speed sensor on the frond hub. I abs inop light came on, da, but I drove with it like that for like 2 months, then the E-brake light came on, so I checked the fuild, turned the rotors(they were warpped anyway) and put rear pads b/c they were thin. everything looks good now but when you start the car the light is not on but after you drive like 300 ft the brake light comes on? help please could this be related to the abs provlem?

Put the car on stands, then start it...


Spin one wheel at a time by hand until the light comes on....


The wheel the light comes on with is the sensor you have to check...


Check the plugs and make sure they're clean and dry (my left front plug had P/S fluid leaking all over it)
