Could be a wheel sensor,about £30,could be an abs pump,about £1000.Without any diagnostic test,it is difficult to guess.Probably ok to drive.hth

Check fluid levels for the stop light.

ABS faults are common on 307s ten years and older.

The problem is usually down to dirt getting behind the mount point of the sensors - usually the rears - and they push it too far from the hub.

Its easily sorted by taking off the wheels, unscrewing off the sensor and cleaning the mount point with a wire brush. Takes about half hour tops.

If that doesn't solve it then a Peugeot Planet diagnostic is the way to go. It checks the voltage and activity at the sensors.

Peugeot charge £80+VAT for a diagnostic but many Pug owners have the same equipment and do it for beer money. Have a look on this map and find your closest member:
