Disconnect sensor and abs module and check for power and ground on both wires at sensor (there shouldn't be any at all) if that test passes then check resistance I like to jumper them together at sensor and take reading across both wires at abs module (so you don't have to stretch a wire from the front to the back of it passes) then if that test passes you need to give the circuit a load with an incandescent bulb I like to jumper power to 1 wire at abs module and ground to the other then just use a bulb such as a 194 marker lamb bulb with the wires bent out to touch both terminals at sensor pigtail to confirm that both wires will handle load

Active ABS systems can be really sensitive to sensor to bearing ring clearance, they also tend not to like aftermarket sensors. Generally if you clear down the faults and it comes back either immediately or at next key on it is electrical issue, with the sensor or circuit if it only reappears when the vehicle moves a few yards it is wheel bearing or air gap issue. I don't know the system on the Maxima but I know the later Bosch types shut off the supply voltage to the sensor if the module detects a circuit issue at the switch on self-test

I've ran into issues with aftermarket hubs on NIssans before. Did you make sure you cleaned the knuckle etc....before putting everything back in? There is a TSB on right side for false activation etc....and corrosion.
