Sounds like one of the three ABS sensors has failed...

its weird i put the wheel bearings in 6 ,omths ago and never had any problem. i just cant figure out why it only does it when i turn sharp right when the stearing bottoms out i checked the plugs and they are both plugged in i didnt see any cuts in the wires. It doesnt affect the breaks any at all im lost

where are the senors at i just seen the wires that run the wheel bearing i just figured it would be doing it all the time. Is it the wire that runs to the wheel bearing is that what i need to replace

now since i have been wiggling the steering back and forth they are staying on im lost now i have no idea what it could be befor it would just come on when i turned the steering wheel hard to either side

i was wondering i just found out my balljoints are going out could that throw something off to cause the abs light to come on
