Default ABS and Parking brake light

My abs and parking brake light come on in the middle of a drive. The parking brake releases and works. The abs brake works before the light comes on. Yet while driving the lights come on and the abs does not work anymore.
Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Have heard that cleaning the sensors eliminates false readings. Two sensors up front and one in back. Just wipe them off. Dirt and debris caulses false readings.

Just Browsing through and i saw ur post. From my experience, my rear speed sensor went out from to much torque braking. Therefor my abs light is always on. So if cleaning it doesnt work than you might need to replace the speed sensor.

and my e-brake... well i dont have one anymore cause the drum assembly grinded itself to rubble so cant help ya there.
