2000 X Terra ABS problems

Hey there- hoping someone may be able to give me some insight to a problem I am having. 00 Xbox with 170k, new engine&trans within the past 10k. We inherited the truck about 3 years ago an its rarely driven. Last year, my wife was driving it and and tried to stop for a light and said the pedal went to the floor and she went through the light. I could never get the problem to repete itself, but we took it in anyway. Our mechanic who we trust said everything was shot and unsafe, so $800 later we have new roters, pads all around and 2 new calipers because they were shot.
ABS light would come on occasionally (I know I should have taken it back sooner, but this was less than 800 milesin 1 year) but all seemed fine until I tried to stop for a light and pedal went to the floor, but regained stopping power about 20 feet into the intersection. Took it back to the shop and every time they get the ABS light to come on and try to test it (grounding the 2 OBD pins) the fuse blows and cancels out the code.
My OBD scanner won't pull ABS codes, but is this even do-able with that year. Thaks in advance for any insight you all can give me.
