Question ABS Light - will not go away

The ABS light was on when I got the car out of a barn. I have been slowly providing it the TLC it needs to get it back to health. The ABS light was on and the scan computer was saying it was the right front wheel speed sensor. I replaced the sensor, deleted the code, but the ABS light is still on and no new codes are present. I have already changed the front brake pads, the fluid is topped off, all wiring connections have been checked from the brakes into the wiring harness. Any ideas?

Have you tried disconnecting the ground cable from the battery for a few minutes? Maybe that would reset the computer. I don't know, it's just a suggestion.

There's three different fuses to check --> ABS (30amp); ABS (5amp); IGN3 (30amp). All are located on the underhood junction block (UHJB). Please let me know what you find ...

I have tried the battery, both shortly after I cleared the codes and again this evening with no luck. I appreciate the effort.
