Default ABS Light On

Ok....can anyone tell me if I've F'ed somthing up? I JUST got my 2001 V70 2.4T. After changing the oil and messing with the car this afternoon, the ABS light is on and the message board says ABS Serviceneeded.Sohere's what I did to maybe screw it up...I decided to check the air filter. Well I was curious what was under the box on the left side of the engine bay...sorta looked like another air filter box but it had two metal computer things in it that sorta looked like hard drives. Of course I dropped the metal clips that held the top on, but dropped them under and outside it. Are either of those things related to the ABS. Second thing I did was shampoo the carpets in the whole car. Is there anything under the carpet that is related to ABS that could have gotten wet? OH, I also adjusted the parking break....would that do it? Thanks in advance!

The ABS module might have just gone bad. I think you looked in the engine and transmission module box. That is on the passenger side.

The ABS module in mounted to the bottom of the pump motor which is under the master cylinder.

Try getting the codes reset if they come right back you might want to get it rebuilt for about $100.00.
