Check your speed sensors at your wheels. Could be just dirty. They have magnets on end of sensor and this collects metal and grease and then will not communicate with ABS module throwing code. Could also be bad...ohms test can verify. Corrosion on knuckle could be interfering with distance in the hole being able to read the reluctor ring. I have purchased these for as little as $18 online. OEM can be expensive ($190.00) range.
