No it shouldn't. Anti-lock brake systems are suppose to surge, no lock up and skid.

Does it matter whether your car has ABS brakes why?
ABS prevents breaks from locking up when you have to slam them down to stop suddenly. The ABS system causes the car to jerk a bit when it kicks in. Older cars that don't have ABS may lock up and the car will not maneuver well and may skid when stopping suddenly. If you "pump" non-ABS breaks instead of slamming them down, you can avoid the negative effects of a non-ABS system.

What causes highlander 2004 to lock brakes and skid lights go on?
It should NOT be skidding. From your description I think you are mis-interpreting the "skid light." An '04 Highlander is equipped with an ABS system and the fact that it skids at all is indicative that it is not working properly. The "skid light" that you refer to is actually a warning light that indicates that the ABS system is malfunctioning! You should be getting it to a mechanic or dealer right away to have it fixed.
