There is a speed sensor in the rear differential that controls these things, replace that and your problem is solved!!
i believe it is still only available at the dealer, it's about $50 or $60!!
it's real common problem on the dakota's and durango's!!

My ABS and Brake light goes on alot. Also sometimes my gages will go up and down for no reason. That is what they call the GM shuffel. It happens to alot of GM vehicles.

The back light on the radio is probably bad and sounds like there is an issue with your ABS system. When the light is lit your ABS is disabled. Does not mean that your brakes will not work, it means that your anti-lock brakes will not work.
