The abs unit is self contained, just take the top off
Its more likely one of the wheel sensors has perished

Yeah just take the cover off.
The abs loom connects to the car at the battery terminal and earth point behind headlight (i think, not sure) and three wires to the ignition behind glovebox.

ABS relays are under the black plastic cover marked ABS on the ABS unit itself behind the left headlamp.
