Default Brake related warning lights; help?

My SS 98 Camaro have the ABS inp, ASR OFF and brake lights on. The car is braking normally. The auto tech, tried to access the cluster computer after check all the sensors at each tire. He said that could be the ABS module. What do you think? Any suggestions? Thanks.

He did check all the sensors? And they are all ok?

He was able to access the computer, or he was not able to do this?



Are the abs fuses good? I would start there. If the abs computer is not receiving power, that will cause alerts and can prevent the tech from accessing the abs controller. If I remember correctly, there is a big fuse and a little fuse for the abs, in the fuseblock under the hood.



If the center high-mounted brake light bulb is not working, it will set a brake warning light.

Thanks for the info. I will check those things. About the high-mounted brake light you mentioned is the one at the trunk spoiler? I have a SS Camaro.
