Default ABS sensor?

Okay, was coming home this evening on dry pavement and had to hit the brakes. The ABS started ratcheting the front right brake. I've noticed this every once in a while in snow or coming off of the pavement onto the side of the road, but never thought it about that much till it happened on dry pavement, and only one wheel. ABS light comes on when I start the vehicle, and goes off after about 10 feet of driving like it should, so I'm thinking the ABS sensor, right?

I would lightly tap down the front sensors, they can sometimes get pushed up, also double check for bearing play on all your wheels, that can cause false triggers with the abs system also

Will check the sensors first. Just had the whole front end replaced & aligned about 2 weeks ago. Think they would have noticed the bearings if it needed them as they kept calling me to say I needed another part to finish the job hoping they knocked the sensor loose when they had it apart for that, but I swear it was happening before if I hit the brakes on transitioning road surfaces but never on dry roads.
