Rear wheel abs issue

My abs/traction control/brake lights came on this weekend while driving down the highway. The lights turn off after driving a short distance after each start up, but all come back on once I hit about 20 mph.

I took it to my mechanic this afternoon, and he pulled the codes as a period error of the exciter ring, code 5db2.

We switched the right and left sensor to see if the error followed the sensor, but it didn't. It stayed on the same wheel. So we were looking, and it appears the abs ring is integrated with the wheel bearing. Is that correct?? I have not noticed any wheel bearing-like issues, besides the abs reading issue.

Is it possible for just the abs part of the bearing to fail?
