Hi, the screeching noise could be a wheel bearing,if there is enough play in the bearing this could give a bigger air gap between the abs sensor and reluctor which would bring the abs/tcs lights on.
You most likely have a problem with one of the wheel speed sensors, the related wiring, or the ABS system itself. The traction control and ABS system both work together and rely on the same input information to work. A fault in the ABS system will cause both the ABS and TRAC control lights to illuminate and both systems will be disabled until the fault is gone. I would have a good service facility or dealer look at this one. One quick check you can do is to make certain that the brake fluid master cylinder is properly filled with brake fluid because if it is low enough it can also cause the systems to be disabled.
I have a Chrysler sebring 2004, the ABS and traction control light has come on the dashboard display plus I have now no heater. I think it is a blown fuse but not sure
The front pads are worn down which makes the brake fluid fill up the void the brake pads are missing now due to wear. Replace the brake pads and brake rotors if the rotors are worn too, then top off the brake fluid if needed. You can top of the break fluid for now, but that's just going to turn off your break light warning till you breaks wear it self down to the point you damage the brake rotors.
Have the brake pads replaced and inspect the brake rotors, if your good with common tools you can do this job your self in under 1 hour. Tools you need is a jack, 15mm socket, ratchet, screw driver and a clamp. The Clamp is optional, you can get the brake pads at Auto Zone and they can give you the step by step instructions to getting the job done. Keep me posted, be glad to answer any questions you may have and good luck.
The first thing i would check is all 4 abs sensors at the wheels.You can do this with a volt meter set on ac voltage and spin the wheel if it generates voltage at all on the meter its good.
The red brake light is the key here. That usually indicateds a hydraulic problem. Check you fluid level in master cylinder and see if it is low. Also the level indicator sensor there in the master cylinder maybe sticking or corrioded. If ABS sees the red brake light it will shut off and turn on the ABS light,also traction control would be disabled as well.
