ABS system check going nuts

Hey guys,

This is the issue I am having. When I reverse out of anywhere it feels like my abs engages on the right front tire and the "!" light will blink rapidly. The only way I have found to temporary fix the problem is to turn the VSA off. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

Thanks

Any diagnostic codes?
Fresh fluid all around, incl in the ABS reservoir?

No codes. Fluid is a little dirty. Also i find that when i back into a stall at a slow speed is when it will go engage the most. But as soon as i turn the vsa off it stops.

you need to connect a data scanner that can read abs sensor data. If abs is always activating it means that (more often than not) one of the wheel sensors is bad. Reading the wheel sensor data stream will verify said problem.

Car will be hitting a scanner next week. Just had the engine light come on for what seems to be the torque converter. I guess i will have to wait and see if they pull anything.
