Replaced axle bled brakes and now I have my ABS actuating on slow gentle braking. I am curious to know if there is ABS bleeding procedure I am unaware of? As well as having one wheel a mismatch size I have 3 2254517 and 1 2055516 as a spare until wheel is repaired.

Bleeding the brake will not cause this. It sounds like the corner you were working on is having a problem with the sensor. Can you check to make sure the sensor is in right and that it can read the reluctor as well?

Here is a video that will help you read the codes to confirm:

Please run down this guide and report back.
