Cleaning ABS Wheel Sensors

The ABS system on my 96 Buick is engaging at parking lot creeping speed. Brakes are coming on without touching brake pedal at all. No problem at 5mph or faster. I'm told that the sensors are likely just dirty and/or rusty which affects their accurate operation. I'd like to remove and clean the sensors. Has anyone on the list done this? Is it a difficult job better left to a brake specialist? Where can I find the procedure on the web? I removed the ABS fuse to shut down the system until its fixed. Of course the ABS dash warning light is now on but also the check engine light. Why would the check engine light be on just because the ABS system has been shut off?
