Hope this isn't a wild goose chase.

Going back to ABS and once again if I get this technically wrong - don't moan at me, just trying to help.

ABS sensors used to electronically "count" teeth spinning along with the wheel. It counts all four wheels and when the sums don't add up - ie the count suddenly drops on one wheel it lets the brake off that wheel until the count is the same as the others - still awake?

I think you may have some crap all over the bit that the sensor counts and that is what is making it get it's sums wrong. Hence continually activating it.
