2001 Carrera (2) 996 ABS Dashlight

My ABS dash light came on. Otherwise the car is running great. I replaced all the wheel sensors and the brake switch (pedal/under dash). However it's still on. I have tried to use my HDMI II scanner - zero codes or pending. How do I go about diagnosing the problem? Any hints are appreciated.

My scanner shows no codes. Do I need to upgrade my scanner?

You need a Porsche specific tool such as the PIWIS system or Durametric. Most other scan tools cannot even see the codes, particularly the "global" OBD II scanners.
