ABS light flashing

So this weekend I had to change a wheel bearing.  Although not long ago since I did the rear ones, I had to wait 2 weeks for a replacement spacer to be sent from Japan.  Its only a steel tube but even so...  As I didnt have time to wait last time, I re-used the damaged spacer, but obviously had a little too much damage and caused the rear bearing to wobble.  I replaced the spacer with the new one and swapped out the offending bearing all is now good.

 

Didnt take long at all, about 30 minutes in total but then I put it all back together, gave it a test run and the ABS light came on after about 30 seconds with a steady pulse.  I checked the rear ABS pulser ring and saw that it is obviously made from cardboard reinforced with jelly.  There was a bend in it, I must have caught it somehow and it got slightly bent.  Slight straightening up with a screwdriver and fixed.   

 

Just one to watch out for when you remove your wheels.  I'll be much more careful next time.
