I think when you drive it, the control module will look at what's going on and turn the light off.
I was installing a 2012 front axle in our 2002 chassis. Axle came with new sensor/cable assemblies but the connectors were different. Rather than try to adapt, I chose to reinstall the 2002 sensors. The knuckles are the same from the two model years, so the fastener holes for caliper brackets, splash plates, and ABS sensors were the same. The 2012 (probably 2008 and up) ABS sensors mount on a little bracket. Bracket mounts the same way your sensor does, but the late model sensor then attaches to the bracket from the back side.
Anyhow, I started the engine to bleed brakes and forgot I hadn't plugged the sensors back in. Very relieved to drive it and see the light go out.
