Fit the front wheel sensors first of all and see if that clears your codes. No use fixing something (ABS module) that's no broken.

The usual fault code for the ABS module is 113 Pump unit, Valves, Wiring harness. If you have to fix the ABS module, the black electronics box can be removed leaving the hydro box connected to the pipework.

4, small but long, torx bolts hold the module on.
You can remove it by undoing these, and removing the cable plug, all this without any loss of brake fluid. The pump unit is sealed fully and separately from the ECU

The unit can then be cut open with a dremel around the body, in effect cut the lid off it (you will see where,) but don't cut too deep.
The dry joints are usually where the long extended plug connectors go through to the circuit board. Just reheat to melt, add a bit more solder. Check all the others while it is open, and then use something like Tiger Seal to re-seal the unit back together.

That is IF you need to go there..
