Suspect faulty or dirty ABS sensor. Do a search for something like "cleaning ABS sensor" or "replacing ABS sensor" you should find all kinds of useful info on this.

You can clean them, but thats not a guaranteed fix. If its bad and not dirty your going to have to replace. The good thing is they are not too expensive.
