Connecting a scan tool to the ABS system will be necessary to see why the warning light is on because there are many different components in the system that could be faulty. It could be a sensor problem, wiring issue, module fault, ABS pump malfunction, brake problem, etc. Scanning the system will produce a trouble code that will identify what specific component is having a problem. The trouble code will allow a diagnostic of that specific component failure. If you can have the vehicle scanned and give me this code, then I can pinpoint a specific problem to repair.
I would also check the transmission fluid level and do a pressure test on the transmission. It sounds like the torque converter may be faulty.

I8 saturn vue over 200,000 miles abs light on and vehicle will not drive fwd or backwards if I touch neg and pos terminals together and let it sit for a few min I can restart and drive only long enough until abs light comes on and it makes a whining noise, I've checked fluid levels and reset computer but still continues Mechanic's Assistant: Is it just the ABS light? Or is the brake system warning light on, too? Just abs Mechanic's Assistant: What year is your Vue? 08 Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Vue yourself? What have you tried so far? Yes and tried resetting computer Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? Makes a whining noise
