Default another abs problem

i know, i should search for this, but i did and cant find anything similar, my 2001 is having abs issues, some times when i take off from park, if i am going slower speeds, the light may come on. it will however always come on when i turn the wheel all the way to the right, back to the left it will go off. i needed new brakes for a long time so i replaced it all (pads and rotors). maybe you guys could help?

Check theABS sensors on the front wheels to make sure the connections are clean and tight.

Yeah, sounds like you have a wire being pinched somewhere and grounding out. There will be a wiring harness coming from behind the caliper at each front wheel. This is the harness for the front speed sensor at that wheel. Check the harness for rips, tears, or crush marks on the harness. If possible, reposition the wiring so it doesn't get caught in the steering/suspension if that is the problem.
