Was there any suspsension work ever done on your car recently? Also, did you happen to ever take your ABS sensor off of the hub?

If suspension work is done, check ABS sensor cables.

Your ABS system will set a DTC independent of your check engine light. Have the code pulled so you know where to start looking.

I got some Tien CST installed today and the same thing happened to my GS4. My mechanic will be checking the car's leveling and doule check the installation job as it may have knock something loose during the process. I'll update this post when I have more info.

I had tie rods and brakes put on my car yesterday. This problem came up after the front brakes were put on. The issue is a bad wheel speed sensor on the right wheel. Apparently, the sensor was damaged while the tie rod was being removed. The cost for the sensor is $183 from Carson Toyota, about $40 less than the suggested retail price. It is about a 30 minute install from what I understand. ABS braking is not working when these lights are on.

I don't know if this is helpful but this is the cause of my issue I am in the middle of resolving. Hope this helps.
