Update:
Last night I did not have time to jack up the car and put a multimeter to the wire harness connector at the ABS sensor, so I did some other troubleshooting.
I opened the fuse box on the passenger side and checked all the fuses and they all seemed in tact none were blown.
Then I tried looking at the ABS ECU connectors but could not fully pull it and disconnect all the connectors and clean it, so I decided to pull the grey connector that sits on top of it. Once I did that I started the car to see what I got and I got the message of "Break Malfunction pull over immediately..." you know the message.
So that tells me that that ECU is working as it should, I shut the car off , plugged the connector back and started the car again and that message went away.
As noted before I plan on checking the voltage to the connector for the correct reading to eliminate that, if it reads correct then it must be the sensor itself and I will have to pay to get the hub taken off and replaced. (my garage tool arsenal is not that vast!).

The shop just installed the part, I have a re-order/warranty replacement on standby from RockAuto but will still have to pay for labor.

It's the shops job that anything they touched works correctly when the car is returned and not AFTER you bring it back. Don't mess with it since that will give them an out, at this point they need to fix it and give you a free oil change for your annoyance
