The ABS pump motor gets its running instructions from the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM). If either the power or ground wires to the EBCM are corroded or the connected has water intrusion, it can run the pump motor continuously. Check the pump motor for excessive current draw. Then listen to it to see if it makes too much noise. If it has either of those issues, you must replace it. Also replace the EBCM and reprogram it with the correct tire size.
