Could be an intermittent wiring problem at a wheel sensor, bad/dirty sensor or dirty toothed wheel. Have to pull the wheels off and check.

Just wanted to mention that anytime the ABS light is on your ABS system is likely disabled and your brakes may lock in a hard stop or low traction situation. It is not unsafe to drive under normal conditions but you need to be aware of this and be ready to pump the brake pedal in a lock situation.
