Default Brake and Antilock Stay on After Gauge Swap

I recently replaced my Tach-less insrument pod with an SRT-4 pod.
The red Brake idiot light , along with the orange anti-lock brake light stay on all the time.

I checked the power panel, and there is not a fuse in the anti-lock brake fuse recepticle. (car does not have anti-lock brakes.)
Does anyone have experience with this issue and knows how to turn those lights off ? In the mean time, I will simply insert a fuse and see if they go away.

They are probably on because your car doesn't have them (yes?) so there is a "problem" with them since, well, they aren't even there.

What Darth said. It is because your car doesn't have abs. The only way I know to get rid of it is to take the light bulbs out of the cluster. Or you can just leave it, it will not hurt anything other then make it look like something is wrong with your brakes.
