99 chevy malibu
the light that tells me my ebrake is on along with the ABS light randomly come on. When they are on (and sometimes when they aren't) my car takes all control of my windows and my air. The light comes on seemingly randomly. I wouldnt mind so much except I can't turn on my defroster when the lights come on, and if I'm driving when it happens I'm afraid my window will fog up where I can't pull over.
Does this sound like a wiring problem, or something that is really wrong with my brakes and its taking my power for safety or something? Like, as a feature?

the ABS light can be cused by low brake pads/ disks / shoes. get them changed or looked at, the rest of the stuff is wiring or relay / fuse fault check em. althought the de-mister is made up of wires that run accros the windscreen and if it breaks in a small place it wnt wrk. drive safe.

the problem is most likely a poor ground circuit has developed in the instrument cluster assembly and control system for the car. It is evident because the lights that come on are becoming the only source of a ground, and the light bulbs won't carry that sort of heavy electrical load.
I recommend that you take the car to the shop. Unless you or someone you know is a very good and experienced automotive electrician, this can be a very difficult problem to locate. Even the pros will spend some time here.
Good Luck and Merry Christmas

Sounds like 2 problems.
Could be a wheel speed sensor for the ABS light coming on and poss.low break fluid for red brake light.
And maybe a relay or fusible link at fault for the lights,windows and defroster.
Cary a rag to wipe the windshield and a cell phone.
Or it is possessed.
