Default ABS light update!

So this isnt just for Mach 1 stangs but i posted here anyway.....

i recently dropped my stang. after a few days of driving, the ABS light started to randomly come on and off. (of course the TCS doesnt work when the ABS light is on). anyway, here recently it has been deciding to pretty much stay on 99% of the time. i removed the wheel sensors and cleaned them real good but that didnt help. I checked all the fuses. I checked the fluid level. i unplugged the pos/neg terminals on batt to clear. I unplugged the ABS module plug to clear. I unplugged the brake fluid plug to clear......etc

Here is the kicker.....i got an ABS scan tool. When the light is off the scan tool says "no codes found"....When the light is on, the scan tool says "connection error, please check connections".

So, perhaps my ABS module went out somehow....before i buy another one, is there a way to check this one? Can i just unplug it and leave it off?

sometimes the wires get pinched and can cause to throw a code
