1997 Saab 900 se turbo *electrical/vacuum issue*??

I have recently purchased a 1997 Saab 900 se turbo. When I first start the vehicle (cold start) I have a rough idle and the abs light/brake light will come on, only under acceleration. Also when accelerating, the climate control system will switch to "off". This happens throughout the day, but will happen less frequently as the vehicle reaches normal running temperatures. When I come up to a light, or the car returns to idle, yet again the climate control will kick back on, and the ABS/brake light will go out. If I allow the vehicle to just sit and idle, at any temperature, the climate control will work properly and there will be no warning dash lights lit. As soon as I rev the vehicle up, or put it in gear and accelerate, the climate control will set itself off, and the ABS/red brake light will kick on. Bad ground issue? Vaccum leak? Bad sensor? I am looking for any assistance. I will make a quick list of what I have done to the vehicle - new spark plugs, new air filter, new cabin filter, cleaned and reclamped positive battery cable, removed and cleaned interior cabin temp sensor. Any help would be great.
