2nd. The Anti Lock light is on. I filled the fluid as it was at the minium level, light never went out. The car does need brakes, would this fix this problem, or is it somthing else? I figured maybe bleeding them might have an effect on the light.

3rd. The traction control button doesnt work. I always have the (traction off) light on. Do I just need a new switch?

4th. My cruise control will not engage. I push the button, the light comes on, then after I let go of the button the light goes out andthe button does nothing. Do I need a new Button?

I dont want to pay someone, so any help would be appreciated.

Problem 1, blower motor resistor. PIA to get to, but a cheap fix. It's a $20 part. It's in the blower agansit the firewall and held in by 2 small bolts (I forget the size, but it's an odd one)

Problem 2 and 3 sound related. I vote for Wheel hub, but if the car needs brakes do it all at the same time. You have to take the brakes off to do this anyway

Problem 4 never had this problem, sorry
