Sounds like your ABS module is on its last legs.

The dealership wanted about $1500 to fix mine.. so that was a no go.

I took off the EBCM myself. You dont need to take off the whole thing, only the half of it held together by 4 or 6 screws..very easy.

Sent it ups to ABSFIXER.com about $30 shipping and ABSFIXER charged me $150 to repair it and they send it back to you. Mine was less than a week.

All in all $180.00 bucks

I'd pull the code to make sure first.
If it's c1214.... then ABSfixer can fix it.

Or... you could have a try at it first.
