one of your sensor could be dirty or faulty just gotta find which one.

It maybe an indication of low output from your alternator.

in the time it took you to post this new thread, wait for responses, and then post your response, you could have found the answer in one of the hundreds of other threads about this very subject. No need to further clutter the forum with posts on the same issue.

I've collaborated on helping many others with this issue, but since you asked, I'll stay out of it.

Yeh, not trying to flame but there is a TON of information about that issue if you search. I had it a couple of months ago... I read all the threads and it was a lot to read and it had me scared the fix was going to be several grand, but it just ended up being my alternator. I see you just had it replaced, but check the terminals on your battery... etc... make sure they are all free debris and have a solid contact. Also, take it by an auto parts store and see what amp youre pushing. From there I would check the sensors... Good luck man.. I hope its an easy fix and not one of the costly abs modules!
