Take both front wheels off and clean out the teeth on the drive shafts, they usually get blocked up with crud and the sensor cant pick them up.

If that doesnt work then you'll need to get it hooked up to a machine and find out which sensor if fooked and replace it with a new one

when corsa's ae lowered i find the wire to the plug isnt long enough and it snatches and pulls the plug out slightly making the light come on. had it happen a few times.
