ABS-light on together with brake fluid light may mean brake pump or accumulator malfunction (with an ISAT You should easily diagnose the correct nature of concern). Do a search in this powerful BB under ABS or ABS pump for symptoms and corrective steps.
Brake pedal becomes stiff whed ABS disengages and ABS light comes on: have Your brake circuit bleeded and correctly refilled with fresh DOT4 fluid, clean up wheel sensors and go for a ride.(pay attention not to trust so much in Your ABS: if any doubt stop)
About battery drain, I had mine replaced because of a defective cabin temperature sensor which didn't use to stop running! This yielded to many battery problems at startup. "Ari" is the guru for any electic trouble in this board, try to post a message to him.
How much coolant in the reservoir when light starts?
Replacing the old coolant should be my first guess: as time passes, coolant looses its properties and tend to become corrosive. Check for coolant losses in the engine compartment(white paper towel at any clamp) and for hose clamps tightness.
PS without AC in a dry wheater, with angine running you shouldn't see any fluid (water or similars) coming from the aquarium drain tube: otherwise heather core could be the culprit.Any white smoke from tailpipe?.
Good luck
Tiziano
