Default ABS Warning light

Does anyone know what things to try when getting this error. The car will start fine some days and i will drive to work happily with no probs. Then i can start car for return journey and the stupid ABS warning comes on!I lose ABS, but if i drive a couple of mins down the road and restart the car, warning goes away?????I have removed sensors and reset them with a slight gap. No change. Ive heard horror stories of £1000 for new ABS module, i want to sell the car, so do u not want to b spending out! ANy help would b appreciated.

the sensors are gaped so don't add shims to alter the gap this will cause faults next thing to do is clean out the gaps in the cogs so the ABS speed sensor can detect the spaces (if they are caked with mud they will not be able to work)

Don't change the gaps, they are preset for a reason. Get the fault codes and see exactly whats going on, maybe its just one speed sensor thats going bad or its the control module.
