TCS ans ABS and Brake light on 2005 hyundai santa fe

I had the front brakes replaced about two weeks ago and everything seemed fine but a week later when i would brake it sounded as if the brakes were locking up when i stopped. This did not happen all the time just occasionally, then yesterday the brake light came on again and the TCS and ABS lights. All 3 lights remain on but truck seems to brake okay. Any suggestions? Thanks James989

There is a senor that is in the caliper they are pricey and annoying a way to try to see if its it make a soltuion of salt water, heavy salt soak the whole caliper reall good i mean real good with start the veh. back up and down the drive way then rinse it off throughly and see what thew the lights do, do this f or ll sides, make sure you throughly rinse after and dont let the salt water saty on for mor e than 10 mins. But this will fluse the senosr and clean it...Sometime resets them,,,,Sounds crazy but it works if that is the problem. Try this and let me know fro m there

2005 Hyundai Santa Fe, brakes locking up

Lets narrow this down a bit. You said all 4 wheels lock up. So the problem will will have a part in all 4 wheels. So knowing that, we can forget about the hose, master cylinder, and brake booster theories. It sounds like the ABS module is malfunctioning and surging. The Santa Fe's in the previous year had the same problem and were recalled. The problem with those was the ABS unit. Hope this helps you.
