A scan tool that can read ABS codes will tell you weather there is a circut fault or a wheel bearing itself is bad.

keep in mind some of the budget OBD reader like the $50 model at Walmart will only read engine code. You'd need a pricier model that reads everything so head to a mechanic if you don't have one. The one my Dad uses at his auto shop is around $4,000 but it can do everything including adding key fob, relearning, etc.

Like a tech2?

no like a abs code scanner. make sure it covers your year make and model car, read the reviews.
but some newer cars some abs codes will come up on a regular code scanner. they did on my friends 04 GM truck.

It can be a wheel bearing going bad, wiring issue (bad grounds somewhere or clipped), bad sensor on wheel bearing, or the EBCM module can be going bad.

unless you find bad wires, or a loose hub, its best to scan it as hubs are pricey to be just tossing parts at a abs problem.
most shops will charge you up to 75 bucks for the abs scan, or a cheap on line abs scanner can be found for about 50, more or less.

ya im not really saying to toss parts at it but he did directly ask what can cause it so I decided to list it lol.

Yes a tech2 reads abs info.
