2000 Ranger ABS light

Probably my first post. The ABS light went on and I brought it in to a local "trusted" tire shop to look at. The are saying maybe the ABS sensor needs replaced but the front left calipher locked up and that the e-brake snapped and wrapped around the rear brakes.

I am not mechanically inclined but I am will to learn. They are claiming over $1100 to repair. And that, my friends, is not in the budget. I don't even use the e-brake, so I wouldn't know how that happened. They did the inspection on it last year and this wasn't an issue. At that time, brakes were low but with all the other stuff I had to have done, I couldn't afford it. Maybe, if I had, something would be different today.

If I need full rear, front and new e-brake, what is a good estimate of costs, both DYI and having the dealer do it.
