Maybe you want to add this info to this ABS thread?
Front diff won't have anything to do with your ABS, the front wheel speed sensors are built into the hubs. You can't clean the sensors, although you can check the connectors. The WSS plugs are in a weatherproof connector coming out of the wheel bearing and usually following the brake hose up and out of the wheel well. As long as they are visibly tight, check the rest of the sensor wiring with an ohmmeter to test the wires and you may even be able to see the sensor action with an ohmmeter connected and spinning the wheel by hand. It sounds to me like you have a wire rubbing somewhere.
A shop with a good scan tool/computer can connect to the ABS system and watch the WSS outputs, and then tell you which sensor you need to troubleshoot/replace. I have my own PCM scan tool but it won't communicate with ABS system. I have a local shop I can pay $30 to hook up and read any ABS codes if needed, they know up front I am going to DIY the repairs.
