Some of those have sensors built into the brake pads if not probably a wheel bearing sensor in bearing assembly.

SOURCE: abs sensor light wont go off my 2005 polo

Your ABS systems use a combination of electronic and hydraulic systems to modulate the brakes individually to prevent them from locking up. ANTILOCK systems consist of wheel speed sensors, a hydraulic control unit (HCU), and an electronic control unit (ECU). Because of how complex the system is your computer does a self-test. If the check is successful, the ANTILOCK and BRAKE lights will go out within a few seconds. If one of the component of the ABS system fails to pass one or both lights will remain lit. One or both warning lights may also come on while driving, also indicating a problem. If just the ANTILOCK warning light comes on, some ABS component has failed, but the car still has hydraulic brakes. The grinding noise could the the ABS pump or your brake pads could to worn to the metal backing and grinding against the brake rotors. I recommend a inspection soon for your safety.

Service stabiliatrak light on and grinding noise from front end not all of the time abs light on also

failing wheel bearings allowing the disc to touch the ABS sensor
Stabiltrak and ABS use the same sensor and the faulty bearing will allow the rotor on the disc to hit the sensor tip

After getting new tires on the front of the van, the abs light now comes on intermittently and once in a while the brake pedal will pulsate and it makes a grinding noise

They may have damaged one of the ABS sensors in the front.
Take it back and have them check that their tech did not accidently unplug a sensor or damage it. What you think is grinding may be the abs coming on.

Abs light on/grinding and clunking in turns on front left side of 2003 ford explorer

Sounds like left front loose wheel bearing knocking ABS sensor out of range causing ABS light to come on and causing grind noise at same location. Grinding noise is probably rotor rubbing on calipar.

Abs rear wheel sensor offside

When you replace a speed sensor, the light should turn itself off after driving it. If it does not go off, than there is another problem.

I think the grinding noise you are hearing is the ABS pump coming in. Check the wheel speed sensor rings to check is they are the same. If they are different (number of slots} the ABS control module will be confused and starts the pump. I had that problem with my A6.

My brake pedal is making like a grinding noise when I stop, the ABS light has come on once or twice but goes off again. The brake pads are fine because ive had them changed. Any ideas welcome

Sounds like you have a dirty or bad Speed sensor (ABS). The griding is actually the ABS pump kicking in because it's getting false readings. Clean or replace the sensor(S) in the front wheel hubs. It is recommended to NOT drive the car until this is fixed. (WHY???) Because even though right now they seem to work, one of these times you will go to hit the brakes, they will become rock hard and you will bot be able to push on the pedal, you will have an accident and could be seriously injured.

2006 ford escape - abs and 4wd lights on yesterday - off today - brakes checked - ok - right turn makes grinding noise with slight application of brake -

the grinding nose you heard was something rubbing on the rotor, bad brakes, caliper, after market wheels, etc. the pressure of a turn bends something enough to touch, this is produceing metal flake that attached to the magnetic sensor on the abs sending a light on because it couldn't read the tire position as it turned, it may have got blown off, washed off, but when it can read the tire again the light will go off, i would look into the grinding noise on cornering thats the cause of the problem. hope this helps

Grinding noise in front end and abs light came on

check wheel bearing play. if the play is excessive it will cause the abs sensor to come away from tone ring loosing signal, illuminating abs light.
