Default Brake pedal is on the floor

I pretty much don't have any brakes for some reason. My abs/inop light keeps coming on and my brakes were working ok but the pedal was jumping at low speeds before. Now its just hitting the carpet until I pump it up a little but it sinks back after I stop. What's you peoples answer to this one? I think its the master so I have one on the way from Ca. but its gonna take another week. Help!!!!!

I couldn't tell you what fluid I have in it. All I know is that it's not low or anything.

Check for leaks. If no leaks, Master cylinder.

Verify the fluid level in the master cylinder. If it's empty you got a leak. If not get a master cylinder.
