Anti-Lock Light Blues

Hello,
My 91 turbo just let me know the anti-lock light is on, and I'm not sure what to do. Sitting with the engine off, and ignition on, I hit the break once and the brake pump motor whirls to life as the little round pressure canister shakes as it fills. Once full, it quickly turns off until I hit the break again. (I read on another threat it should take 12 pumps for this to happen, not one)
Thinking it might be this canister, I pumped the brakes 25-30 times to empty the system, with the ignition off. The pump runs for three times as long to fill it once the ignition is on. This tells me that the canister is shot and the pump is working just fine.
When the engine is running, naturally the anti-lock light is on, and the brake fluid light turns on briefly when the pedal is pressed. The fluid isn't fresh, but its filled well within recommended limits. The anti-lock brake light stays on, while the engine runs. To me, it sounds like the canister, but I want to hear what you guys think.
To replace the canister, what do I have to do to ensure I don't hurt myself?
