Default 2014 FLHXS front wheel swap- ABS won't go off

I replaced the stock 19" Enforcer factory wheel with a chrome Enforcer factory wheel, I purchased the ABS wheel bearing kit and spacers needed. I installed the new wheel on my bike and the ABS light stays on now. Any ideas on what the issue may be? I did read that it needs to run up to at least 5 mph to complete a self check and may go off then, but it did not work. We did ride it about 8 miles in hopes of the light going off, but no luck! Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Check to make sure the abs bearing is installed with the correct side facing out.
Check the wiring on the Wheel Speed Sensor (abs sensor that mounts on the axle next to the abs bearing).
I think the abs performs it's checks at 3mph. I know my abs light usually goes out before I get out of the driveway. 2014 FLHTK

Found a you tube video and the bearing is in backwards. The Enforcer wheel bearing is the only wheel that turns the writing on the bearing to the inside, not like the stock wheel where the writing is on the outside of the bearing. Oh well, just going to take it off and pull it, so I can install it correctly this time. Live and learn!

Took the bearing out and turned it around and problem solved! Thanks to You Tube!
