Default 1996 Accord EX Coupe 4cyl - ABS Light ON, No DTC Code

Hi guys! Hope you are all having a better day than mine. I seem to be having a bit of a issue with my 1996 Honda Accord Coupe EX. It has currently about 139000 miles on it and it still runs pretty good. Last week while driving normally at about 35MPH when the ABS light came on. I disregarded it at that moment since I was driving on a busy avenue and I was going to have a real hard time trying to pull over in that traffic. So I drove about 3 more miles with the ABS light on. I arrived at my parking place at home and decided to pull the codes by shorting the blue 2p service connector under the dash on the passenger side of the car. All lights went on as expected. To my surprise the ABS light did go on too, but it did not blink. Immediately, after unshorting the connector, I tryed to put the car in contact to see if the darn light would go off. No luck. I went thru all the steps described in the Shop Manual for the car and all checks went fine, voltage on all connectors, all fuses ok, charging system ok, and so on... I came down to the point where the manual says I should try another ABS unit on the car a see if that helps in any way... Bad for me I don't have another ABS unit laying around, neither have the money to go and get another one... So i thought giving it a shot with you guys. Any ideas as how else to proceed? I 've driven the car several times from the moment the ABS light went on, but I still get the solid ABS light on, for all other things the car is in good confition. Tryed several other times to pull codes, reset ECU & ABS unit (both by pulling the battery cables for 2 minutes and by removing fuses) and still nothing.

I wrote a bit so far, hope it does not bother... Any suggestions, ideas, crazy rituals, human/animal sacrifices will be taken in consideration.

Thanks in advance to all!
