Default Accord 94 EX ABS light on

I have a 1994 Honda Accord EX, My ABS lights is on, also my D4 and CEL are on but thats because of a bad Vehicle Speed Sensor which im waiting on the part to be delivered so I can install it. When I read the code on the Dash my ABS light blinks 3 times but not back to back, it blinks 1 time then stops, blinks 1 time and stops, blinks 1 more time and then stops then doesnt blink anymore. Can anybody provide me with the code definition for this or a simple code list would be excellent and would this be code 1 or code 1-3 or code 3-1. Appreciate all your help and feedback guys !

Code ones are usually for the pump motor....hear a strange "buzz" on start up?

Me, I'd start with check the brake fluid in the abs unit...different than the brake fluid. Then I would bleed the abs - again, different than the brakes. Reset the abs and see what you have from there.

well about the "Buzz" sound if you mean my engine vibrating yes it vibrates A LOT. I actually replaced the master cylinder 2 days ago thinking that would fix the ABS light. but no luck..just stopped my brake pedal from sinking.

Again, just me but I would check/do the items I already suggested....abs fluid level and abs bleeding.

Engine vibrations are something else....but buzz, vibrations are the fun of doing this on the net.....I see/hear/read those as two different things.

PS- forgot this before...thanks for joining HAF

EDIT: dang I'm slow tonight....have a friend start the car as you place your hand on the abs unit.....at the time you hear the "buzz" can you feel it? Again, even if you do not....no harm in bleeding the abs unit.
