ABS code diagnosis help please?

Pulled a 12 and a 21, (though the 21 may be a 30, was hard to tell)
Does anyone have a list of diagnostics for the ABS codes?
I searched and found lots on how to pull them but nothing on interpreting them.
PS: 1999 Intiniti i30t
Thanks!

Have you tried to search in a FSM?

12 -- Self-diagnosis could not detect any malfunctions.
21 -- Front right sensor (open-circuit)
30 -- couldn't find such code

Check your front RH sensor and connections, reset the light.

Thank you Lexoid! I'll check it.
Reset the light by grounding 3 times in 12.5 seconds, yes?

I'd be interested to know as well what the proper method is to ground the ABS to pull and clear codes. Chilton's describes what part of the unit to ground, but doesn't say how to do it specifically.

Just use a small jumper wire to connect those two pins, or a wire connected to any other ground source.

Excellent! Thank you. I had the procedure from your manual, but needed the ground to #4 pin part.

I still need help with my 0505 code which came back again today. As I mentioned in the other thread, the system is charging fine at the battery. Suggestions?

Is this the same procedure for a 5th gen maxima? I wasn't able to find this section in the 2003 fsm (looked in BR and EL section), I was specifically looking for the list of codes related to the abs, since my light came on.
Thanks
