ABS / brake dash lights on!

I have a 1993 Ranger xlt 3.0 5 speed, 2wd truck this winter I slid into a curb with the right side of the truck coming up to a stop sign. ( Michigan winters , gotta love it) anyway the abs light and brake light have been on ever since.
My question how I go about turning them off or what to check to cure the problem? Thanks out to anyone that can help. Geno

I would check the right side wheel sensors and see that the wiring is still intact to the wheel sensor, and make sure the sensors themselves are intact and still in the proper location. Was there wheel or suspension damage? or was it visibly unscathed?

I agree, it sounds like an ABS sensor and/or ring may have gotten damaged during the impact.

some of the connections there can get damages if you just "snowplowed" a bunch of snow and ice up and there the wrong way, but definately just catch a dry mild day and look all the connections and sensors over good.
