Messy
Take your car across the river to Autozone and get it scanned for any codes, abs etc, apparently they offer this as a free service state side.abs could be a bad sensor /wiring problem at wheel.you`ve read the lighting issues ,so you know where to look for that problem,up front. how old is your battery. It does sound like you have a bad electrical connection somewhere and the water is creating a problem . your alternator is likely still ok if .. if your battery is good something is drawing power and killing it. your alternator and battery may also get a free check up.

ya most likely but if these checks are free why not get it done ,right ? with the abs light they can pin point which wheel is acting up
