Check the battery connections (both ends of both cables). Then have your charging system tested.

Not sure if the 4th gens are like the 5th gens but a "weak" charging system can and will trip the ABS light.

Is it the "brake lamp" or the "brake" light that is on?

Brake lamp - car icon, back of the car. Well there are a few things it could be. Bad bulb is the first place to start.

Brake - like if you have the e-brake on. Check the fluid level in the brake master cyl first. If low, you need to figure out "why". Brakes worn or a leak.

----

You replaced the end(s) at the battery - did you check the "other" ends of the cables?

----

There is a "service" connector on the pass side of the car. If you jump that connector (use a paper clip or piece of wire to join the two together) and then turn the car to on/pos II, if there are any codes stored in the abs system it will flash the code.
