handbrake light still on after new sensor

[vwwvgolf]

hello,
my handbrake light and abs light had been on since i brought the car. few months ago the bulb in the abs light blew.
finally got round to changing my drivers side rear abs sensor. i had tested it with the multimeter a while ago so knew it was that one. cleaned the abs rings up on both sides as they were covered in crap. went for a quick drive and handbrake light was off for a minute to start with but came back on. tried a quick skid to see if abs kicked in and it didnt. 
 
is it possible that the abs bulb needs to be functioning so the handbrake light can go out? and for the abs to work again?

ABS ECU is most likely broken,but first check the fluid level and the handbrake switch to make sure,get the car scanned for fault codes

[vwwvgolf]

yeah fluid levels and switch have been checked.

does the bulb have anything to do with it??

and yeah guna try and scan it after dinner

[Screech16v]

The bulb has nothing to do with abs fault .

[vwwvgolf]

just scanned it and its showing both front sensors the rear right sensor (just changed) and also the abs pump

 
 
is there still chance its the abs ecu??   or would it show on the scan if its the ecu??

[Screech16v]

With that report of faults then I would put money on it, ive been there with mine !

Pay someone to fit and bleed the ABS pump if you need one as it can be a sh!t to do, the rest is easy although it can get expensive if its all fragged
I've had to change the lot too

[vwwvgolf]

where exactly is the abs ecu?? ive searched google and here but cnt seem  to find it. only thing ive found is under rear seats but i know its not there

its bolted to the pump and has a big plug going to it.
