Hi and welcome to to the Forum.

There are several possibilities and ideally I would suggest you hook it up to a Lexia to diagnose the problem if you have access to one where you are located.

The issue may be related to a dirty ABS wheel sensor. If one of these gets contaminated with dirt or anything else it can play up. If one of the sensors is detected as being faulty, it will disable the whole system until the fault is corrected.

It may also be a wiring fault, but without a proper diagnosis it will simply be guess work.
Please note, I'm no longer active on the Forum, so won't respond to messages.

Test the sensors, they are the most likely cause of the problem.
There's a video here to show you how:
