You have to run the code and see what the problem is. they have a normal known problem thou on the abs to be a rabs sensor located at the top of your differential.
its not an expensive part. Use a 10mm, a 3/8, or a 13mm depending on the model and remove the sensor.
replace it and see if the light goes out. IF the code was a c1230 or c1229 this is probably the problem.
