I was thinking the same thing, but "it wouldn't crank" and "I noticed....the ABS light was on" lead me to believe there could also be an electrical failure somewhere too. I'd first check the condition of the battery terminals/cables; and I mean actually unscrew and inspect them don't just look at them and say "eh, they look fine." Next, I would have the battery and alternator load tested (AutoZone and Advance Auto do this for free).

In short, your crank sensor could be bad, but I think you also have an electrical issue at the same time.
