Warning light combo

1993 Mazda MX6 2.5i V6.
The following warning lights came on this morning whilst driving the vehicle at approx. 70mph - battery charge, 4x ABS and rear fog. Engine temp was fine and no obvious change to performance. There is a pre-existing lag / stutter on occasions when accelerating in all gears (manual), and a squealing noise on start-up has recently presented itself (? belt or water pump). Any ideas?

Have the alternator and its charging checked. The belt noise could be related to the alternator and the indicator lights showing. Check the drive belt conditions and tension.
