The retaining lever should lock the connector into place, so unless a pin has been bent when fitting it (which I suspect would stop it from fitting securely), it's sounding more like physical damage to the wiring. Considering the location of the loom, it's difficult to think how any of it could get damaged, especially with the ABS warning now showing after checking the connector.
Grasping at straws here, but has there ever been any work done in and around that area that you know of? Thinking along the lines of someone putting a screw in the wrong place... straight through the loom.
Not that this helps, but here's one part of the wiring loom for the dash/engine bay, that includes the instrument cluster (43), Coolant level (40) and ABS (34) connectors:
