ABS is activating. Any work performed on your car recently?

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.
