Remove the sensor and clean the whole item, should clear it hopefully  unless you end up unlucky like me having to replace the ABS pump

Agree with above, mine came on - cleaned the rear sensors and no problems since. That was ages ago.
Rough ground may cause the lights to come on, uneven tyre pressures have been known to do same.
