Not WD anyway, what grease were you considering?
Copper/non seize maybe...

Do you mean speed sensor or do you mean brake pad wear sensor? 
The brake pad wear sensor is pushed through the back of the caliper and attaches to the brake pad.
The speed sensor is attached to the knuckle.
It sounds like you mean the brake pad wear sensor. Don't use copper grease on that. It should just push in.
In fact, I've stopped using copper grease at all when doing brakes these days. All it does it get hot, go runny, and attract dirt. Providing your calliper sliders are working correctly and caliper stainless shims are clean, you should not have an issue.

Are you sure it was the sensor that was faulty and not wiring as I had no issues after changing mine 2 months ago and I don't have an iid to reset anything Chris

? C1A94-2F (08) Front right wheel speed sensor circuit - General signal failure - signal is erratic
