stilligotit,
You've posted in the wrong section for your 1999 XK8. I've moved it from XK/XKR (2006 - Onwards) to XK8/XKR (1996 - 2006).
There will be a better response if you post the actual codes.

Clean your wheel speed sensors first.
If you still have issues run through the checks outlined here:

If you still have problems repair the solder joints in the ABS module:

If you have the faults when you start the car before you move it, then you might want to consider doing the solder joint repair first, as that is the most likely problem.
