Default Could be a misaligned wheel sensor - mine was off by about 1mm or so and it fubared the ABS and EDL
systems. Sometimes some dirt gets in there or it just gradually gets to the point where it is now out of alignment. They are very sensitive and don't necessarily need to get whacked to cause a problem. Don't know what mine scanned when this happened as it was aligned under warranty by dealer...

check your brake fluid - you're probably a bit low.

Could be as simple as some dirt in the sensor or sensor ring, also check the connectors.
