Default 2001 Blazer 4WD problem

Hi, I have a 2001 Blazer that I bought about 8 months ago that was lightly hit in the front on the passenger side. I had to replace the grille, the engine fan and several other small cosmetic things but haven't really figured out what's wrong on the inside.

There's some sort of problem with my wiring that causes my E Brake, Service Engine Soon and ABS lights to be on all of the time. These aren't huge problems since I know that nothing is actually wrong with the motor, E brake or ABS. This wiring problem also causes my 4WD panel to blow out it's fuses. I've replaced them and tried to switch from 2WD to 4WD but it always shorts out before it can make the transition.

Anyone know what I might be able to do to fix that?

Have you had the codes read to determine why the SES light is on? The same can be done with the ABS light with the appropriate scan tool.

As far as your 4wd system goes, do you have a 3-button switch in the dash or a 4-button?

I have a 4 button switch, and I haven't had the codes read. My dad thinks he knows everything about every vehicle so he told me he knows what's wrong. However, he doesn't know how to explain it to me or fix it? Doesn't make much sense so I decided to look for help elsewhere.
