Try a Reset then see what codes you pull.

Battery and Charging system ok?

puter connections? or Main connector.. Water in connector?

One is Pump failure and Nothing to do with a wheel pickup sounds more like its electrical.

Disconnect Neg battery few mins, Hit brake pedal once just to use any remaining voltage.. Your scanner may have a reset mode. Check fuses to ABS Under hood and inside.. In manual for Numbers..

So after the resets, what remains?

Whick ABS scaner you got? There should be a manual with it to explain each code.
If it was me, I will check each code first and re-set the ABS memory. Then run and aply break to caue NEW error code, then read new error code...

Finaly, you will now where is wrong.

I suffered these damn ABS error and did not get any way to read and explain them for a long time.

Beside buying expensive afternmarket ABS scaner or go to Ford dealor, Any one know any way to read these ABS error code ?

Evey one can benefit from this.

The codes are in history, and should be dropped after so many cycles, I think 50? Once you have so many good cycles with no codes it should be wiped clean.
