Default ABS pulsing after P.B.'s replaced my rear ABS Sensor, anyone have a VAG near Philly / West Chester?

I had my rear wheel bearings done at Pep Boys and they broke the rear sensor... Its been 2 months but I finally took it in for them to replace for free. After they replaced it, the ABS was kicking in and "pulsing" even when I was coming to a slow stop. Now the ABS light is on and the Brake light blinks and beeps at start up. Pep Boys cant figure it out and it's either the ABS Module or the sensor they installed is wrong. Can someone help me and scan my car for me? I live in West Chester, PA. Thanks!

Default Perhaps they messed up the sensor ring? Can't think of the exact term for it...

But it's the part attached to the CV joint that the ABS sensor gets its pulse from. I remember someone a while back mentioned they had one that was messed up and made the ABS act crazy. If they broke your ABS sensor it's possible they also jacked up that ring in the process.
