Check the wheel speed sensor wire harnesses at all 4 wheels. A chafed, loose, dirty speed sensor harness that goes just behind the caliper can cause this.

Also an easy thing to check that could cause this is uneven tire pressures and tire tread thickness. if one tire is lower than the rest then its going to rotate at a different speed than the rest of the tires. causing the ABS/TC module to throw a traction control fault.
