May be worth measuring the sensors with a meter.
They should all read the same resistance; the one that's different will be the faulty one.
It’s also worth a look at the ABS control module in the engine compartment; make sure no water has got into the electrics.

Bleeding is very unlikley to fix a light, you need to get a meter across each sensor, they are usually very obvious if they have failed....
