ABS light on, pedal nearly goes to the floor

Well a few weeks back, I had a wheel bearing replaced, but in the process the shop broke or damaged the ABS sensor causing the ABS light to come on ever time I drive the car. Since this, the brake pedal nearly goes to the floor before I notice any considerable braking power. Is this typical or may something be wrong?

Have you checked your fluid level? Inspected the lines back there? Bled the system?

I have not done that yet, but plan on it, hopefully in the next weekend or two.

How bad did they mess up the ABS sensor? If its out of line or just not working anymore your ABS could be messing with pedal pressure.
