I had the anti skid error after changing the lower ball joint. Initially had over tightened the retaining screw (75N instead of 35N - misread the figure) and broke it. Next time probably didn't tighten it enough, which meant the ABS is misreading the wheel speed.

This would lead to the esp being turned of, and the abs not functioning. Also would stop you from being able to use the cruise control.

Ultimately how a car wash would result in a faulty abs sensor, other than water getting into the sensor, I am not sure - but that's what I would check for the original issue.
