Looking for some advice, looked around online but can't find anything that helps, wondering if anyone can help me out. I replaced the rear left wheel bearing on my 2005 Passat but messed up the wheel speed sensor in the process. Put everything back together and waited a few weeks to obtain and replace the sensor. During that time the ESP light would be constant and occasionally the ABS light would flick on after a longer drive. After replacing the speed sensor I cleared the codes and went for a test drive. ABS and ESP lights both flicked on and are constant so I ran a scan and came back with the codes: 001486 - System Function Test Activated, 00778 - Steering Angle Sensor (G85) Faulty/Intermittent, and 00290 ABS Wheel Speed Sensor; Rear Left (G46) Implausible Signal. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

What brand sensor/wheel bearing did you use?
