Default Problem after clutch install

I installed a clutch in my 02 Z06. Prior to the install, there were no warning lights on. Now, the check engine light is on and the "service traction sys", "service ABS", "service active handling" goes across the display. It is also give a code # C1232 (LF Wheel Speed Circuit Open or Shorted).

This all happened as soon as I started the car for the first time after the clutch install. I don't think I left anything unplugged. The car drives and runs fine, so what could be the problem? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

I checked that at the wheel and it was plugged in. I don't think the sensor would of went out by just sitting there during the install of the clutch, what would be the chances? Where does the harness go from the wheel? Would it have been something that would of been unplugged underneath for the clutch install?

did you reinstall the small ground wire on the left rear of the car above the suspension? located in the left rear wheel well and held on by a 10mm nut...

If you are talking about the ground wire on the left side frame rail, just above the muffler, then yes. If not, I'm not sure which one you are talking about then.

There's a large wiring harness that runs alongside the torque tube. There's also smaller ones that split out once it reaches the rear axle. Did anyone get pinched or crushed during the install? It's easy to do, I almost made a huge booboo when I did my clutch install. Caught the wiring harness between the bellhousing and the torque tube and started tightening it down...
