Default code and abs light

I got my code read this morning for the 3 amigos, the guy cleared them but the 3 light came right back..
the code are : 1590 and 1300 there was also P0303 and P0305 (which if I rmember are the misfire )

what are the first 2 codes and does that mean I need to change the abs sensor ?...

The ABS sensor could just be loose or really clogged with brake dust. Oddly enough dirty ABS sensors trigger fault codes on a off-raod trk.

YOu need new plugs and wires. Magnacor 8MM and Bosch +4. The first code is a rough road signal and the last 3 are mis fires. What grade of fuel are you running? Might consider an induction cleaning as well.

You have to have a Rover compatible scanner to read the ABS codes. Totally different. YOu have 2 situations going on.. Have someone with a rover scanner read your ABS codes and it will tell you which sensor to look at. A regular OBD2 scanner will not read or clear ABS codes..

I'm running premium only, I added last week an Injector cleaner (lucas something) usualy I'm getting gas from Exxon or Shell. I knew about the plugs and wire.

None of those codes have anything to do with your ABS, which does tak a much more expensive scanner to check, repair and clear.
First thing you need to do is the plugs and Magnecor wires, then you can clear the check engine codes.
Then find a shop with a lap top type scanner and get the ABS faults read and get back to us with what they find.
