Chances are really good that one of the ABS sensors has failed.

The first thing to do is a physical inspection of the 4 wheels / sensors and the electrical connections. Hopefully, the bad one will be readily evident.

ABS error codes are stored in the car's computer, but it'll take more than the standard code readers that Autozone & the others use for their 'free' readings.

Tires stores typically have the right equipment, but don't be surprised if they want to charge a nominal fee to have them retrieve the codes.

Btw, my only failed ABS sensor on my 2001 cost about $40 and was a pretty straight-forward replacement project.
