Pulse or vibration in brake pedeal abs light goes on then off then service traction control comes on then off

I would think if your brakes have not been taken apartin a year, then brake work or at least rust removal & lubeis where I would startAfter that, you diagnose the ABS System, as you have adash light on & a system fault presentThere is no guessing or giving you a list of possibleparts to throw at any vehicle problemIt requires testing to determine all issues,causes &a solution.Brake work needed,maybe machine rotors,new pads,maybe nothing,then possibly a fail Wheel Speed SensorDo not keep driving it ,get it resolved

Emmissions test can't be finished because the computer needs to be reset after a new battery cable

That should be enough time to reset the emission systems. Did you clear codes since then or remove the battery or one its cables for another reason?Check to make sure all the battery cables are tight and clean. Sometimes if a cable doesn't have a good connection to the battery due to being loose or dirty, it may not allow the battery to keep the car's memory when it's shut off so may reset the emissions.
