PSM/ABS fault

PSM/ABS fault
I've searched but can't find the answer.
After driving anywhere from a few yards to a few miles I get PSM/ABS fault and eventually CEL too.
After searching it seemed that MAF was the most likely culprit; changed it and the problem persists. The brake lights work fine so I assume it's not the brake switch.
I remember reading something about PSS9's possibly causing the problem, does anyone have any insight on this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Stanley

Is my best bet on this to pull codes ( probably is) - got this for the first time today- I just noticed before turning the car off...
Went into a store , came out everything normal? Car drives fine no error messages now? Should this matter..

This happened to me this past winter. Driving thru some heavy snow on the way home from work. The right front caliper froze. I was actually driving the car with only 3 wheels. Heard a snap (which was the wheel breaking free). The CEL/PSM and ABS all came on. Next day after having the car in the garage overnite and thawing out all was good. Doubt that was your problem but I think all lights are related to an issue with your brakes. ???

Go to a decent auto parts store, and they can pull codes for you off of the OBD2 port. Post them here and/or google the codes and you should get some idea of what's up. However, be aware that a lot of times the code translations don't give a clearcut answer.

Many conditions may cause an ABS/PSM fault light. Reading the codes will show you the first place to look.
