The only real way to find out what is going is to have a diagnostic scan. You can go to auto zone and have it scanned for free but im pretty sure their scanners are for motor only, not abs. You need an abs scanner. Any garage should be able to scan. It could range in cost from$35 to$100 for a scan. Abs light could be a as simple as wheel sensor. The brake warning concerns me though. I would check your brake fluid. When was the last time you had new brake pads put on. You may have worn the pads so low, you have run down the brake fluid.i wouldnt drive until i found out what is going on with the brakes. any other help needed, just ask.

Abslight stays on. How to fix? This is a2007trailblazer?

First you need to have EBCM - electronic brake control module check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's . If the light is on there is a code stored . I think most part stores can do this and for free . After you find out what code is stored , looking up that code in service repair information for diagnostic trouble shooting chart would be next step . There are a few codes too.
DTC C0035 or C0040
DTC C0045 or C0050
DTC C0110
DTC C0131
DTC C0161
DTC C0186
DTC C0196
DTC C0201
DTC C0240
DTC C0241 or P0856
DTC C0244 or P1689
DTC C0245
DTC C0283
DTC C0287
DTC C0290 or C0292
DTC C0455
DTC C0550
DTC C0558

Find the code do the diagnostic's , fix the problem , wiring issue's , a sensor , bad module ,what ever it is . The light will go out then . Here is a sample of code discription .
• DTC C0035 Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit
• DTC C0040 Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit

1992 fuel injection 2.6 idle high and loping?

The brake and ABS lights could be on because of a brake or ABS problem. The ABS system uses the hydraulic brake system in addition to the ABS components.
The high idle could be a vac leak or a problem with the idle air control valve. You could check the computer for trouble codes even if the warning light does not stay on.
