In my '95 Integra that's 'ABS pump motor over-run'. (Good chance yours has the same ABS system.)
That can be caused by air in the ABS. Fresh brake fluid & bleed the air out would be the first thing to do. Then you can start worrying about pressure sensors or bad pumps.

Dude has a 95 and 03 Accord??? Wouldn't that make him an owner? I have a 92 Accord EX and luckily no ABS light, but I got majore rotor warping issues happening every 2-3 months.

My '95 is an Integra. Beginning in '98 Honda changed the ABS system, I think across all models. So my '98 Accord doesn't count. The '95 Accord ABS system hardware has more in common with a '95 Integra than it does with a '98 Accord. I figured they used the same list of error codes, but I'm not absolutely sure.

Integra codes and accord codes are much different, I already know that. The dealership told me so. They said they wanted 90 bucks to put it on a machine and test it out to see what the code was. I'm thinking i'm gonna find a right answer and fix it myself.

Bleeding the ABS fluid to remove air bubbles is a straightforward, easy thing to try. I wouldn't want to tell you to start testing/cutting/splicing wires without having the repair book for the proper model & year.
Go to www.helminc.com & buy a repair manual. So they want $90 to read the code, but this book is only about $70. Pays for itself right there. Besides, you've ALREADY read the code. All the codes are listed in that book, with very detailed procedures for finding what's broke based on which code you read. (Remember, the code doesn't say exactly what's broke, it only narrows down the search.)
Or... sit & wait for someone with a '92 Accord Helm book to post... (I'd be curious to know whether the codes are really so different.)
