Are you sure its not the relay under the hood back by the passenger side firewall ?
If its stuck it will buzz after shutoff, and the abs light will be on when its running.
I have to bang mine with a screwdriver every once in awhile.
That shuts it off and the buzzing stops.

If you don't hear a buzzing, likely culprit is that the ABS pump is done.

The brake section of the FSM has the relay testing procedure, page BR-62

I would check to see if the sensors are dirty before assuming anything is defective. Assuming is a good way to waste a lot of money.
