My husband changed the brakes on our 2006 Pacifica and now the ABS light, check engine lights are on. Also, we keep getting a signal of 'gascap' on the lower right hand of the warning lights.

Go to a diffrent mechanic! There is only one light for your ABS and thats on your dash. If the light came on after the brakes were installed, I would suspect that your mechanic didn't open the bleeder screw on the calipers before depressing the piston. This would force fluid back to the ABS acumulator, setting off the light.
You need to fix the problem, and the ABS light will go out on it's own. Get it checked, then fix it yourself if you want. You need a good scan tool to get the codes though.
Hi. this light is a warning that concerns the ABS sensor and mechanism assembly. there is a central module and connecting sensors that are attached to each axle/rotor. If any of the sensors become unstable or starts to malfunction, the main module will detect this anomaly and it will trip the light via, the ECM.
I recommend taking this vehicle in so that the ABS techs can diagnosis this issue and they can pin point which sensor or mechanism is malfunctioning.
You vehicle seems to operate in a normal manner at this point but, you will actually have to be in a hard braking situation in order to experience this malfunctions results. If you where to initiate a hard brake while the ABS system is in safe mode(light on), your vehiclewould simply lock up. It would not provide the ABS actions due to this malfunction that is evident at this point.
