Default ABS/VSA light on

I just pulled the code for the ABS light. It's code 13- which is the left front ABS sensor. I don't have time to troubleshoot it to make sure that it's just sensor. Is it safe to say that it's definitely the sensor and I can go ahead and order it? I had trouble installing my coilovers on that side and I was slamming on it pretty hard. I just wanted to confirm that it's not the wiring that is bad, but just the sensor. Trying to save myself from finding out after ordering the sensor that it's something else. Thanks guys.

if you were installing coilovers and put a lotta stress on that wire, it could have pulled the wire out of the sensor itself or even the plug. But most likely going to the sensor. I'd say go ahead and replace the sensor in that case. Just buy it used from one of the people parting out an S2000. A lot cheaper and they work just fine... new or used.
