Water in one of the sensors causing it to make contact?

could be any of them. mine did that flickering on and off for a while then it went altogether one day when I was approaching a que of traffic! pedal went funny and started juddering, braking was shit and stopped about 3 inches from the car infront in a cloud of tyre smoke.
not fun.
I have since removed the ABS system completely. if I were you I would remove the fuse just incase. if id does decide to go under braking it could be nasty.

Sh1te!
its weird though, only comes on when i go over a slope!!
probably worth cleaning the rear drusm then as they easy to take of, is the sensor easily located inside the drums? and what should i use to clean??
the drums and shoes themselfs have not been changed in donkey years, ive had the car for 5 years!! so could this also affect it??
