Sounds like there's high/ low spots on the rotors , The abs light on could be due to the rotors , or a sensor on the backing plate / rear wheels or your front wheels.

Educate me because I know of only hydraulic ABS systems only the dash light is electric, help me. Now there might be magnets and coils in the wheels sending a pulse of electricity to stop the brake or release and start the brake but these solenoids do go out to lunch, why the fuse?
Is your ABS working properly? Under heavy braking the ABS should engage and 'pulse' the brakes on/off. It is normal to feel the brake petal flutter or pulse under your foot.
Under light braking there should be no pulsing as the ABS does not engage and you have changed the rotors and pads.
Hey man The ABS light is most likely a speed sensor out of range. It will not effect normal braking function. You have already spent a ton of money. Chasing an ABS light fault is not cost effective and you wont feel the difference. ABS problems are a dealer only option(expensive). Take that ABS bulb out of the dash and forget about it.
bleed the brakes again starting form the longest line back to the shortest
if you have been getting a pulsing feeling at the pedal under normal brakes you have warped rotors that need replacing or machining
under normal brakes the abs is not effective and it is only under sever brakes that you will experience the pulsations at the pedal
You can try unpluging the fuse under the hood for the ABS but your brake light and ABS light on the dash will come on.I'm in NH and it would fail the saftey inspection if either of thoughs lights were on during the inspection.See if this helps your problem but you most likely have a wheel sensor going bad in the ABS system.
