02 Rendezvous - ABS/Traction Control Issue

Starting a couple of weeks ago, my 02 Rendezvous has been acting up. Usually right after I start the car, and make the first turn and brake, the brakes will pulse in an ABS fashion, and the traction control light kicks on. 95% of the time, it's only right after I start the car. Occassionally I'll get an ABS pulse when braking. Can someone tell me what might be wrong, and how to figure it out? From doing a little investigation on the web, it might be some sort of ABS or speed senor. Thanks!

Mine does same thing. Typically cause is connector the plug for the ABS/Hub. Have had connector and contacts looked at and bent back into place for a short term fix. Problem is constant during warm weather, but as it gets colder her in Michigan the problem goes away completely. Assuming the cold temp is affecting connections (making better??). Have all new wheel bearings also.

Get it scanned for codes first if the ABS light on.Check for broken wires in the harness.
