Default ABS Lt. & Brake Lt. on

Have a 2002 grand Caravan with 92,000 miles. Driving to work in the snow brake & ABS were working and then both lights came on. Checked fluid level-is full. Disconnected battery--both lights still on. Can it be checked with an OBD? Recently did front pads 3 weeks ago. Here are the last 8 digits of VIN 2r602243, can this be checked for manufacturer (Bendix?) to see if has lifetime warranty an ABS?

Any help appreciated.

Check all 4 wheels for snow buildup on the sensor teeth in the hubs. If they become coated in snow, the sensors can't read them right and will set a fault in the abs system.

Default 2003 GC with ABS and Brake Lights On

The ABS and brake lights came on my '03 about six weeks ago. Pads, shoes, rotors, drums are all like new and both front and back have been bled. Battery disconnect for 5 minutes didn't reset lights. I suspect problem may be faulty wheel sensor. Any suggestions on testing them?

Think it might have been snow. Lights off and working now. Did check continuity, none left front sensor, but right front did. Any thoughts why?

Thanks
