abs light

Hello,
the abs warning light turns on after a few seconds . The strange thing about it is that sometimes it does not, and specially when it,s raining. Can anybody help me? maybe it is something with the wheel sensor...

to teast the wheel sensor buy a cheap multi meter like about £7 and find out what the electrical resistance is meant to be and hopefully it will be clear , i would start with the front passenger side sensor first .

also if you can remove all wheels and carfully clean the slotted rotors on the ABS discs and the tip of the sensors .
