Got two questions. First one is, my car was off the road for about 9 month didnt move at all. The first time I drove it the ABS light came on and hasnt gone off since. Any ideas as to what that is. Second just recently occasionally when I apply the brakes the parking brake light comes on. Any ideas as to the reason for that. Thanks for any help.

The parking brake light comes on when you are low on brake fluid. The ABS light is probably on because the brake fluid was low enough to let air into the master cylinder. I hear this takes a special tool to fix, but I could be wrong.

you need a scan tool to open the ABS solenoids.
