On my ute, the cable from the ABS sensors in the rear would repeatedly get caught up in the leaf springs....this would mess up the wires, and the ABS light would come on.
I have had to repair munted ABS cabling 2 or 3 times in the past.

the same is happening in my ED XR6..just in the process of cleaning the ABS sensors to see if that fixes the problem.
