try gently cleaning the faces of the sensors, all this rain aint good for lecky stuff. theres a section in the bongo manual on how to test them but this may be hard to do if its an occasional fault.
follow the wires up from the sensor, there is a connector,(its quite a way up) split and clean.
be careful if you go for the removal of the sensor, the bolts either break off or the sensor is stuck in the mount.

Have you by any chance fitted LED stop lamps? I did (they were crap) and they caused the 4WD ABS lamp to illuminate randomly.

If you have not fitted LEDs, check your stop lamps and connections, there is obviously some sort of self-test of the stop lamp circuit.
