Have u a link for cleaning the wheel sensor?
No, but it's mainly just ensuring there is no debris between it and the brake rotors on the front. You could remove it and clean the sensor end for good measure, but the problem is usually more like accumulated mud or a wedged stone than the light film of fines that would be more typical. It's the gadget in the hub assembly with a wire leading from it that's similar on each side. There's a second wire on one side only for the pad wear sensor.

The rear sensors are much more protected and should not be a problem with debris.
 
A further update in case of interest to anyone with similar problems.
On Saturday, before ordering a new ECU, thought I wouold take time to try and reset sensors again.
This is what I did.
Checked tyre pressures. One showing down 4 psi so corrected.
Started engine. Full lock left, then right.
For luck, full lock left, then right.
Press and held the tyre reset button.
Drove off and ABS lights went off.
Shut down an restarted and still off.
Started and drove twice on Sunday, still off.
Driven for 40 minutes today and still off.
Will contributors please ensure that fingers are crossed. :D
 
Another day and no warning lights so all seems OK.
Just as well, had a quote for a new ECU @ £1740
But if anyone does need to replace, in case you are not aware, I had a quote of £200 for repair of the existing, from http://www.ecutesting.com/ which I have had excellent reports of.
