Pull the tires in front, look behind and at the bottom of the rotor splash shield, there will be a small pencil eraser looking sensor facing the back of the rotor. Now, follow the sensor wire along the brake hose thru to the wheel well liner. Disconnect and replace. Don't forget to disconnect the battery and remove the sensor attach bolt on the back side of the splash shield before unclipping from the brake hose or disconnecting at the wheel well liner.
The cheapest I could find a FORD sensor was $130.00. If you can get one for $50.00 at the dealer I would replace them all. They may never be that price again...

I'm guessing that there are a total of 3, right? One on each front wheel, and one on the diff? Assuming they are interchangeable (probably not), at $150 each, I'm gonna buy just one, and see if I can figure out which one is bad thru process of elimination. Sure hate to have to shell out $450 + tax.
Or...I could always just put a piece of black electrical tape over the ABS light on the dash, LOL!
