Question ABS and Traction light- No Code

Hey guys,
So I was replacing my wheel studs and removed the front two wheel bearings in the process. As this was my first time, I accidentally forgot to remove the ABS/speed sensor on the first bearing. I didn't pull hard and soon realized the bearing was stuck due to the sensor not being removed. Upon inspection the sensor appeared fine but it may be fragile and the damage may not be visible. Anyway, after driving the car for about 5 minutes, the Traction and ABS lights came on. I scanned the car with my Open Flash and got P0462 which had to do with low fuel (I had half of a tank?). I erased the code and the traction and ABS lights are still on. No limp mode or CEL. I fear it may be due to the ABS sensor being possibly damaged but I'm not sure. The Open Flash still reads no codes but it does not read body codes so it could be the ABS Sensor. I have an old OBD2 code reader so I used that but still no code

Here's my question: Do you think a newer code reader would find the issue that an old code reader would not find? If so, which do you recommend
Also, any advice for diagnosing the issue without taking it to a dealership or shop that would charge me to diagnose it? Thanks
