Hi Steve.
I presume you had to cut the ABS wiring close to the enter point to fit over a socket, and used a wood screw with a flat/domed head.
I used a self taper bolt on a front ABS sensor before which work to certain degree, you first need to drill an hold into ABS sensor other wise using any screw will just act the same as putting a screw into a rawl plug and spread out the sensor making it even tighter, when i tried to pry it out it just pulled out the centre.

Also on the front you must clean up and debris as you go, with a brush or even better an hoover, i removed the bolt and then used a longer screw remembering the depth so not to go completely through other wise the end would spread out.

it came out slowly.

even it had started to spread on the end.

Hole must be hoovered out and clean before adding a new ABS sensor

You can do the same with the rear but in my opinion it is always best to remove the disc drum so you can check the back plate for any rust and debris which maybe stuck to the magnet on the bearing.
