What that means for your ABS module
Road salt: check the wiring before the module
Salt and brine work their way into the ABS system's wiring. Corroded wheel-speed sensor connectors, or a harness chafed along the frame, can set the same warning lights as a failed module. Before you pull the module, look at each sensor plug and at the module connector for green corrosion or broken pins. If they are clean and the codes point at the module itself — or a scan tool cannot talk to it — the module is the likely cause.
Vermont rules that matter for an ABS light
Vermont inspection rules, and what they say about ABS.
Safety inspection
All motor vehicles registered in Vermont must be inspected once a year (23 V.S.A. 1222). source ↗
The ABS warning light
The pleasure car and light truck section has no separate ABS item. It rejects a car if the brake system failure indicator light or warning light stays on after the engine is started and the parking brake is released; the manual does not say whether an amber ABS lamp counts. Separate ABS rules exist only for heavy trucks, buses, trailers and motorcycles. source ↗

Will an ABS light fail inspection in Vermont?

Can winter road salt in Burlington cause an ABS light?
Salt and brine work their way into the ABS system's wiring. Corroded wheel-speed sensor connectors, or a harness chafed along the frame, can set the same warning lights as a failed module. Before you pull the module, look at each sensor plug and at the module connector for green corrosion or broken pins.
