any dash lights?
is the brake fluid level okay?
what year and how many miles?

when you say slow speed, do you mean like 5-10mph?
i had that issue after some front end work.
the ABS sensor had grease on it. One bolt holds it in place. I wiped it off and disconnected the battery...all has been good since that time.
