I havent tried to get the codes yet but I think I read that for the ABS you cannot get the codes unless you have a reader for ABS. At this point I am just trying to get lights to go out long enough for me to have it inspected by the state. Maybe I should be asking the question of how do I disable the lights so they wont work at all.
in the haynes book, page 9-24 "diagnose and repair" it tells you to ground terminal 13 with a jumper wire on the ABS module. that will in turn cause the ABS light to flash. the flashes are your codes.

I will try to pull the codes and I will also try the cruise control as well as recheck the rear sensor. It has to be a bad connection somewhere,it didnt come on at all on my way to work this morning until I put it in reverse to back into my parking spot. It usually comes on after I make a stop and then either a turn or I back up.
