Default C0225, C0226, C0227, C0265 ABS codes w/brakes locking on 2002 Silverado

Got code C0225 (ABS light and wheel sensor code). Replaced wheel sensor then got C0225, C0226, C0227 and C0265 with the brakes locking up at low speeds (less than 15 MPH). No lock up at highway speeds. Vehicle is a 2002 Silverado 2 WD with 4.8 V8.
See that this could be caused by a bad ground, broken or shorted wiring or connectors, or even the ECBM. Some posts say to just disconnect the ABS fuse under the hood and go without ABS. Have done a similar thing with a 99 Montana and drove it over 10 years with no problems.
What would be a proper fix for this? Can't continue to drive with brakes locking up.

When my ABS module finally convinced me I needed to eliminate it was after it wouldn't allow me to stop.

I would pull the fuse and see if it still locks up. But I wonder if you're not fighting a collapsed line or something that won't let it relieve pressure. This is assuming your not just standing on the brakes. At low speeds even with ABS you can lock the wheels.

Do the brakes seem to be unusually hot?
