You need to hook the sensor back up again. If you connect the wires together, the system will think the rear end is locked up and try to activate the ABS system. If you don't care about ABS, just take the ABS light out of the dash and leave the wires cut. The rear ABS on those trucks was pretty worthless anyways.
