Check the fuses for ABS, usually more than 1. Remove the plug from ABS module & check for any corrosion or moisture, gave a spray of WD & replace. If still a problem get a diagnostic, but suspect ABS module may be goosed.

Thanks for the reply, is the abs module behind the battery or under the dash on left side?

Will be in the engine compartment & have the hydraulic pipes connected to it.
