try checking the fuseable link if it gets hot it can cause the car to shut off it is located in the one of the power wires coming off of the alternator pigtail.

Testimonial: "Actually that was the problem, one of the fuses coming off the alternator was fried."

Save your self the hassle and expence of troubleshooting and replacement parts, install a suspension retrofit kit which changes the rear bags to coil springs and the front to struts. A car this old you might as well start over for less than $500.00......

1995 Chevy Cavalier

The amber ABS warning light is telling you that there is a problem with the ABS system. When the antilock brakes don't work you just have good old fashion non antilock brakes. When the red brake warning light is on it could be a couple of things. (unless you are talking about the brake light on the back of the car is stuck on) the red brake warning light on the dash tells you when the parking brake is on and it also tells you when there is a problem with the hydraulic system. Some cars will also turn this light on when the brake fluid is low, (not sure if the Cavalier does this)

The ABS system is computer controlled and needs to be scanned for trouble codes to diagnose the problem.

I can't say I have ever heard of a "brights" indicator flashing, Do the headlights go bright and dim as it is flashing? Is it a slow on and off like a turn signal or faster than that?

Warning light "check ride control"

all warning lights come on during start up. its a test to insure all lights are working. if the light stays on longer than it should you may have a leak in the system somewhere. you can check for leaks with a spray bottle filled with soapy water. on top of the compressor and at the top of the airbags are a common area for leaks.
