Most common cause is a dirty wheel speed sensor followed close by a pinched or broken wire to one of the front wheel speed sensors.

Have you checked the brake fluid level in the master cylinder?

Check your fluid level and then pull your wheels and clean the sensors on the hubs and see if that helps.
