ABS Brake system problem

the person who sold me this car told me that the ABS brakes were "chattering", well i think i know what he means, he took the fuse out but it still sounds like the brakes are trying to work while i'm going down the road, like a high pitch screeching noise but it doesn't do it all the time, i've only heard it 3 times in the past week, anyone have any ideas??

Are your brake pads almost gone? Is it a sound of metal-to-metal contact? Otherwise, stick the fuse back in and run an ABS self-diagnosis.

it's not unusual to have screeching from the brakes, when they AREN'T applied, when the pads get worn
