ABS Light on.

Coming home tonight,I noticed that my Brake and ABS light kept flashing on off.They would come on for a few seconds then go off.After I turned off the highway,I hit a small pothole in the road and this time they came on and stayed on.Anybody know why this would be going on???????

Do you have a four wheel drive? Good luck if so.

No I meant for replacement. From what I can see if hte service manual, the whole hub has to come off of the 4x4's to repalce this sensor. That is why my light has been on for about nine years now.
