2009 XT Speed Sensor

My god, this car has been nothing but a money pit.

Recently changed my struts, and now I have a P0500 code that will not go away (speed sensor issue). I have chased this issue to the end of the world - no damage to wire from changing strut, no loose mounting bolts, nothing unplugged, I am lost. I just removed sensors and cleaned just in case and they look completely fine visually (cleaned inside of hub which is OEM), nothing resolving P0500 code. I know I can buy a new sensor, but I can’t bring myself to sinking another dime into this with such a non sensible situation.

What is something I can do to try resolving this?

Before swapping struts I never had an issue with the speed sensor/this code, I can’t understand how a new strut just causes it to no longer work when nothing was damaged/everything is installed and mounted correctly.
