[DIY] Front brake sensor F150

A question for you auto guys if you have a minute. We have a 2002 Ford 150 4x4. Put new brakes on the front and now the abs light stays on. Googled it and learned more than I ever wanted to know — but how much is knowledge and how much hype?

The shop got metal shavings in the (drum?) If that's true would they be responsible for fixing it?
The sensors are bad
A fuse is bad
Take it to the shop :)
Has to be done by a dealer — and on it goes.

Ford dealer charges $95 for a diagnosis. Had it checked by auto-zone today, couldn't get a code but he said the right front sensor was bad. Checked on-line and the part runs around $50+-. Lots of videos on youtube. Have a friend who can help but is this a DIY job or better (safer) done by a mechanic?

Thanks much for any info you care to pass along.
