Manual 1998 malibu

The brake fluid goes in a reservoir on top of the master cyclinder inside the firewall under the hood.

Open the hood of your 1998 Chevy Malibu and locate the brake fluid reservoir. On a 1998 Malibu, it's located on the driver's side closest to the front windshield. Open the reservoir tank and place the cap in a safe place where it won't get lost. Fill it to the fill line and not above then replace the cap and your done. Now you need to figure out where the brake fluid is going since this is a closed system and if it is low then your brakes are getting worn and more fluid is accumulating in the lines due to more travel of the brake cyclinders or you have a leak. The master cylinder should look like this picture, if you find this helpful, a vote with the thumbs up would be appreciated

check brake light switch on back top of brake pedal. it may not be getting any power or it may be out of adjustment or bad. the fuses are in under hood fuse box.

the brake shoes must be holding the drum from coming off. in the back of the drum on the backing platte, there should be a place to loosen brakes it is a open slot. use a brake tool or a wide screwdriver to loosen brakes, move tool up or down on star wheel to loosen the brakes.

Your bulb isn't bad you may have a grounded or broken wire on right lite.

The ABS module is located on the driver side of the car where the firewall and driver side fender meet, It is a silver box with brake lines running to it. The pump should be located within that box.

If when changing the brakes you pushed fluid back into the master cylinder it may have affected the abs sensor with the reverse flow. I have seen this happen before.
