Default ABS Brake light! Help!

My ABS brake light came on today, I stopped and shut the car and turned it back on and it has came on since. I checked for codes and there are none. The brake fluid looks okay but the rear rotors seem to have a little bit of oil on them. Its not brake dust and it seems like its much more oily on the backside of the rotors and the fronts are not like this. The car has been sitting for a long time, is it possible that the calipers are somehow leaking or maybe a brake line

I took the car to have an inspection done and the brakes were fine, the shop just recommended a brake fluid flush. Today the ABS light and the TCS light came on though. Any ideas on what could be wrong
