Answer
although you have check the sensors and they seem to work  the wiring itself could be at fault.The ABS light will go off if the problem is repaired.You have to go a little deeper and check the wiring to the computer,The wires have a tendency to corrode inside the casing so look for wires that are bubbley or green.
