Volvo S40 ABS & tyre probs S40-V40 1998

Hi
I've got a 1998 2.0 S40, and i have been having a few probs with it recently.

First of all the ABS light stays on, and when I took it to have the fault code read, it came out as "2-1-5 Valve relay: open circuit or short-circuit".
Does anybody know what this means? My mechanic hasnt got a clue!!

Also the other problem that I have been having is that the rear tyres have been wearing on the inside edge very badly. I took the car to kwik-fit for tracking, but they said that the rear wheels are not adjustable on this car! The car is also front wheel drive.

Can anybody help with these problems?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Peter.
