Abs & dsc light stay on

Hello guys, i know there is a lot of threads about this, however, I just need to have one concern clear. I have the ABS lights and DSC on all the time, I repair my car from scratch, the engine was damaged, the rest of the car was fine. Now, I swap the engine from a 2006 RX8 13B, everything was perfectly fine, however, since the swap, the lights came on. My car is a 2004 RX8. Now, my question is, due to the swap, do you guys think that the ABS motor or module didn't communicate properly with the ECU since the beginning because was using another ABS info from the 2006 car or what. I changed the ABS cables, the sensors looks fine, no problems with fuse or brake lights, I have the same size and pressure on my tires currently. I looking for suggestions because there is one post with a lot of possible reasons and I tried them all and is still the same issue.

i know the traction control light comes on, whenever the battery has been disconnected for a while, and that requires the steering wheel to be turned all the way to lock each direction.

Have you tried driving it? does the abs work at all?

for those 2, if the other reccomendations didn't work, you might want to get the car scanned by someone that can read the ABS codes.

Indeed, I have to scan it, I drove the car like I normally does and I felt the brakes normal, however, I have to scan it with a different scanner. The first time I tried I got no error codes at all.

****UPDATE****
I scanned the car and I got C1145 front right wheel speed sensor failure.
I changed the cables and still have the error, now, I guess that the only option left is replacing the hub.
