Default 2001 rx 300 possible abs problem

I have a rx300 with 130k miles.....I am getting this clicking sound that could also be described as a slipping issue when I first start moving....only last a second or two....then everything is fine
the anti slip light blinks also, again just for a second or two.....

Sometimes when I start the car the abs light will stay on.....other times it will not appear....What I have noticed is that if the abs light is on i do not get the slipping sound....It appears to me to be coming from the front drivers side wheel

New to the site....Thanks in advance for your responses

Try cleaning the wheel hub/speed sensors located on each hub. Fixed the problem on my 2001. They were dirty. **NOTE use caution on getting the rear one`s out, might want to spray with WD-40, and let soak over night.
