You need to have the ABS module scanned and record the stored code numbers.

To add some thoughts ABS scanning will cost SO some free ideas-
the ABS light - is it on AND does it come on at every start?
Suspension - excess free play, tires wear and size ok, no different sizes.
Is there any indication of excess brake wear on one side? were pads worn more on a side?
