Default ABS light on, Brake light blink

I have a '99 A6 2.8 and the ABS light is on while the brake light blinks. I checked brake fluid and it is full, but not over the max. Any thoughts on what the problem could be? Thanks.

I do plan to get it checked. Rotors and pads are new in the last 20k. I hope I am not looking at a big $$ repair.

Thanks.
Tom

I had simular problem. ABS light came on and my brake light blink. I've took mine out (http://www.modulemaster.com/audiabsremoval.html) and sent it in to get it rebuilt (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-Pa...mZ230053293695). It cost me $199.00 total $179.00 for the re-build and $20.00 for UPS shipping. I've had the re-built ABS on for about 2 weeks now and it works GREAT!!!
