I'm just guessing here, but it sounds like more of a mechanical problem. Could be wrong. (probably am). Was the wheel speed sensor reconnected? Was the rotor replaced? (if so, does the replacement rotor have the required reluctor?) If the ABS is actually causing (or seeing) the problem, I would expect you'd be feeling a very rapid "pulsing" in the brake pedal (and, usually, a matching vibration type sound) and would be setting ABS codes. Take a very close look at the front brakes (calipers, rotors, ect.) and steering linkage. Good luck.
