If your battery ABS and air brake light is on and you've replaced the battery and taken it to five different mechanics and they all say that your alternator is working perfectly what else could it be?

Most likely an electrical or computer problem. Not sure what an air brake dummy light is for, or why you car would have an air brake, but the abs could be anything from a sensor at one of the wheels, to the abs module itself freaking out. If you have no problems with the battery discharging, or anything, stick with investigating the ABS problems.

1993 Astra alternator light and brake fluid level warning lights both on with engine running. Battery not charging will replacing alternator cure both fluid level is ok?

Several potential reasons that your battery is not charging. It could be that your battery is too old and must be replaced. Alternatively, the electrolyte in your battery is low and that you have damaged your plates by not replacing the lost fluid with distilled water. Thus, you may have to replace your battery. Or, as you suggest, it could be a defective alternator (actually voltage regulator in the alternator). However, first you should check the belt your alternator runs off. If may be loose, causing the alternator not to charge the battery. Old belts develop multiple microcracks that will loosen the belt tension. Have you replaced your alternator belt since you purchased the vehicle (about every 50,000 miles)? If your belt is tight, it could be that your alternator is bad. Brake light could be related to alternator issue, or you have a separate problem with the brake fluid sensor. Remember to check your brake fluid at least monthly. Hope this helps.
