Sounds like two problems. The ABS light comes on when the ABS module detects an operational error within the system. The ABS module will need to be scanned for codes to determine the source of the problem. As for the ignition key, make sure the gearshift is fully in the park position. Once in park, the key should easily remove. Were you having any other problems with the key prior to this mishap?

You can either siphon the liquid out of the tank or buy a hand pump and pump it out. You can get a hand pump at any automotive supply store (NAPA, Autozone) or Walmart automotive department. To siphon the liquid out get a length of hose and put it into the tank. Suck on the hose until the fluid is coming out of the hose and then lower the end of the hose to a level below the tank itself and let it drain into a container. Be VERY careful with what you drain out. Even if it isn't all fuel it can still burn under the proper conditions. It is also not healthy for pets or children if they get into it. Dispose of the liquid properly. A service station may take it for you, or an auto supply store may be able to take it. If all else fails check with your local trash collection service to see if they will take it for recycling.

pretty sure you have to drop the tank. There is not an access cover. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

The clutch on the A/C compressor cycles on and off in accordance with pressure in the A/C system. If the "stuttering" is not too noticeable, it is normal. If it is severe enough to cause the engine to almost stall, you probably have a problem with the compressor and should have the system serviced.

use a scan tool to reset the ECM

Replace the alternator

Luis: That makes no sense. But here is what others are saying: " How possible is it for a bad alternator to be tested good? I already had people telling me to replace it. I got both the battery and alt tested. Both passed. Reinstalled on the car and it ran good surprisingly after the battery was charged @ the autostore > till after about 10 minutes, then the battery meter dropped back down. Soon as i turned on the lights/ac the battery meter dripped down real low. SOon as i turned them off the meter jumped back up. Soon as i revved the engine the headlight would brighten then dim back down after the rev was over. I can jump the car, but it will turn off by itself if you leave it idling to long then it needs another jump. Driving it doesn't charge the battery up.. its actually drops the battery meter down more and more and more till its dead. -Car doesn't drain the battery while its off.. so its nothing left on. >> Now people are telling me there alternator was tested good, but the problems went away after buying a new alt. " Some people say there could be a loose belt not turning the alternator fast enough to supply power to lights/ac and charge battery. Or bad wires". or possibly a bad voltage regulator.

Is there something inside the Player preventing it from not "Ejecting"?If there was a Mechanical Failure inside the CD Player then you are going to have to remove the Player, and mechanically disassemble the Player to (1) Remove the CD, (2) Repair the Player for future use...
