Scan the computer for code/s and comeback with it or try this bleed the master cyl, then the ABS unit and then the wheels and see what happens

If the ABS light turns on right after you turn on the ignition switch, start by checking the fluid level in the reservoir. If it's at least above the "Add" mark have the diagnostic fault codes read in the ABS Computer.
