So how many people have had a broken speed sensor so far? Broke a second one within 9 months!
Happened right after having my front brakes done.

Whoever did your brakes likely broke the wire- take it back and make them fix it...or...
The wires leading to the ABS wheel sensor are somewhat delicate, and if some monkey isn't careful removing the caliper they can yank on the wire and break the internal copper wire without breaking the insulation. Looks good from the outside. Another common problem is that the sensor gets dirty or mis-aligned. I would check both front sensors for excessive dirt and proper insertion into the sensor hole.
