4-Wheel ABS or just Rear Wheel (RWAL) ABS?

4-Wheel ABS has sensors on both front wheels and the RWAL ABS does not.

The only time that I have seen this personally is when a VSS sensor had gone bad. But not only were the lights you said on but the OD Off light was on and the speedometer did not work. Is the speedometer and odometer working? If they are then the VSS should not be the cause.

Well then like "Mobile Auto Repair" said, replace the VSS or at least inspect the wiring to it for damage.
