Question ETS & ABS Amber lights in Dash Staying On

Hello..
I am new to this forum and would greatly appreciate some help.
I have a W210 E Class model and yesterday whilst driving the ETS & ABS lights illuminated and have stayed on ever since. I have also noticed that the cruise control has not funtioned since.

I have 124k on the clock which is not much for a Mercedes.I would like to know
1. What the problem is ?

2. If I keep driving am I doing any harm?

3.If there is any soloution to this without bringing to a dealership I would greatly appreciate your responses.

Thanks in advance

Thanks Will420 for the link You provided.

I will check my Brake light switch although when I apply the brakes the lights doesnt dim or go out in any way plus I have all my lights .If switch was the cause I think I wouldnt have any brake lights which is leading to look somewhere else,However I will investigate further....Thanks For Your Post

Have the overvoltage protection relay checked and the 2 red fuses on top of this relay. When this relay is out the abs is out. And the abs light is on. Since the cruise control is hooked up to kick off when the brakes are applied it probably won't work if the abs is out.
