Default ABS rear sensor 3GS

Hello again ,
Had my rear right hub replaced by a mechanic yesterday Faulty bearing ,and upon leaving his shop ,, my dash lit up like crazy , ABS ,Yellow and Red circle , AFS Flashing ,check 4WD ,Check VSC , Brought it right back ,he took it apart to verify the ABS sensor witch seemed ok visually ,and told me it was the hub that could be faulty ,, HMM!! SO my question is
Can a ABS sensor be damaged ,with the use of an impact driver nearby ??
Can this ABS sensor be checked with a simple ohm meter ??
Anny comments would be welcome THANKS

If they replaced the hub with a non OE part it may be that it is missing the ring around the hub that the speed sensor uses for detection, the ring is too far away from the sensor, or is in the wrong place on the hub. Without the ring being within specifications on the hub itself the sensor doesn't have anything to sense.
