Had a similar prob with mine just a week ago, but I had 3 lights on the dash, one abs, one tps, and the other was the skid light that I think stands for esp, when I read for faults it came up with right rear abs sensor failure, but the problem was a crack in the abs ring on the back of the wheel bearing hub. You can actually see these between the caliper and backing plate to check before removal.
