Default ABS Kicking in?

Hey guys i just noticed this happening when i pull into a parking spot wheels cranked to the left, when i hit the brakes the abs kicks in. its either that or the wheel seems like its loosing traction. I dont think its loosing traction because it happens all the time, and its only when the wheels are crancked to the left. What could be wrong? this happened out of no where

Mine started doing it right after I got a new set of tires and new alignment (back to UK specs from a racing alignment).

It happens to me as I'm pulling into a parking place at low speed and swinging the car into position. Weird that I went 30,000 miles and it never happened before, and now it happens about once a week.

I had this happen on my audi and it was easily fixed by cleaning the ABS sensor. I was able to to figure out which wheel/sensor was causing the problem with VW/Audi specific data logging software. I'm not sure how to figure it out on the honda, So just clean the sensors one by one until the problem goes away. I just wiped the sensor with a damp cloth.
