ABS warning lamp gremlin (?) S70 1998

Hi, all,
Just picked up my '98 S70 T5, 103k miles, always maintained according to the book (and receipts). The ABS light comes on and goes off for no apparent reason. Reading the forum a bit, I think this is just an intermittent fault and doesn't actually signify a problem with the ABS itself. I do have some questions:-
1. Is this correct ?
2. When the light is on, is the ABS actually OK or will it not operate correctly until the light goes out?
3. If just an electrical gremlin, is it worth getting fixed (I see a replacement module is around $400 from Volvo, a rebuilt one around $130 from someone I saw on a site), or should I just live with it ?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Cheers
Barry
