could be the speed sensor or the ABS controller. Any other clues ie does the ABS or Tracs light blink or illuminate from time to time? ABS controller boards can develop cracks in the solder joints leading to an intermittant fail. Speed sensors can get gunked up, particularly if you recently did work on the hub or axle and a cleaning may help.

Hello - thank you for your reply. The Dashboard ABS indicator light is always 'ON' even though I have changed all the wiring to each of the wheels. I'm at a loss - help - dave. www.wammy-uk.com
