I changed the electronic brake control module and now the brake lite and ABS lite stay on. How can I get them to go off?

Most likely you need to visit the dealer to have them program the module to your vehicle. That's one of the dirty tricks GM developed to make money off you. From what I've been told, you can't install a used computer from a salvage yard. They make you buy a new one from the dealer. I can't verify that, and I hope it's not true.
