So, if I'm reading you semi-correctly, with the key out, the lights remain on and specifically the ABS light is on and you still have a service message? Have you pulled the codes yet, using the DIC to do so?

Then you need to pull the codes from the DIC. Do you know how to do this yet? Its a powerful tool built into all of the C-5's. There are many good writeups here on doing that. Once you pull the codes, you will be able to easily research them or we can tell you pretty quickly where the problem is.
