Hi:
sed on your description, it sounds like one of the front ABS sensors has a short and thinks the wheel is locking. Have the computer scanned to identify which one is the problem or check the sensor for damage or broken / damaged wires. They are located on the rear of the backing plate.

I hope this helps, and positive feedback is appreciated.
