ABS Inop
It will probably randomly go away too.
Sometimes I wonder if the low coolant sensor and the ABS system are hypochondriacs.
Yeah I would get it checked out, heard the ABS can be dangerous if not operating properly.

Not to hijack thread, but mine has been on for a couple years. The code says something about "rear ground fault"? Had a local shop look at it, they told me it was a bad harness that coonects from the rear to the body. Replaced it the light stays on still. I put all led lights in the car yrs ago, I wonder if thats causing it? Brakes still work flawless, so I have not been too worried about it.

As long as your brakes are working fine I wouldn't sweat it. In my experience it's quite common on these cars for the light to come on randomly. Check the sensors to see if everything's in good shape; but like someone mentioned, replacing the parts doesn't guarantee the light will stay out.

There is a good chance that one of the connectors is corroded.
Unplug each connector, one for each front wheel and one or two for the rear and then there is a connector on the body above the axle for the rear sensor(s).
Then you can look at them and see if they need to be cleaned with a bit of contact cleaner. Make sure they seat well when you plug them back in.
Yes ABS issues can be scary, my light would come on and for about 1 second the brakes would 'let go', then catch again. Just enough to stop your heart.

I'll try to skim the service manual tomorrow and see if I can come up with any information.
