Good afternoon,

The ABS does not need to be reset. It resets itself every time you turn the key off and then back on.

If you have a rear-wheel locked up, it is a mechanical issue with the brakes, not the ABS system.

It could be a frozen emergency brake cable or a wheel cylinder that is frozen and will not retract.

The brake hose could also be bad not allowing fluid to return to the master cylinder.
