Message	dont see how this would be happening. the ABS sensors are near the hub. not at the edge of the disk. so thats not the problem. the abs system when engaging are just rerouting the fluid so it will not reach the caliper, then route it to the cacliper again when its ready for that... its like an on/of switch so to speak.
