Default ABS Squealing, ABS light is on.

I have a 2002 CIVIC EX AUTOMATIC. The ABS pump noise that occurs after starting the car up and accelerating a bit is louder than normal. Sort of a grinding noise. It snowed here in Minnesota today and i had a chance to test my ABS out. The first time i tried it out, the ABS worked but it sounded a lot more pronounced than normal. There was the normal ABS sound plus an additional loud noise that also occurred. The second time i slammed on my brakes at a low speed the ABS pump made the noises plus a loud HIGH pitched squealing noise. I then turned the car off and waited 5 minutes. After 5 minutes was up i restarted the car and tested the ABS again from about 5 MPH. The same squealing noise happened but this time the squealing went on after i stopped the car and started driving again. Eventually afer 8 seconds the squealing stopped and the ABS light went on. The ABS no longer works and the ABS light is on. Does anyone have any suggestions on what this may be, how much it may cost, etc. Thank you so much to whoever can help me out. Happy Holidays!

Thanks,

Ryan

bring it to the dealer and have them daignose it. theyll probably start with asking for 1hr labor which is usually around 130 an hour. if they need more time because its a complex problem then they will ask for more diagnosis time. if its under warranty then great u dont have n e probs
