I had similar problem on my '03 2500 RAM pickup. After a replacement of front wheel drive universal joints, the mechanic managed to "nick" one of the wires that is a pick-up for the ABS sensor within the wheel bearing. This caused the lights to show on my dash - and also I found I lost the cruise control feature. While waiting for replacement parts, I found the winter snow/slush/water would short out the wire (or make a completed circuit) and the ABS and brake lights went off on the dash and I had cruise back. Later, when it dried, I was back to same problem.
Have your mechanic do a test using electronic read of failure codes and it will tell him which wheel sensor has the problem. The failure code for ABS won't show up under normal code reads via speedometer let alone at which wheel the problem is occurring.
The above, of course, was "my" problem and fix. It may not be yours, but a good place to start looking
