Simple one first .. "brake light check" .. comes on when you first start ?/ goes off if you pressthe brake pedal ??  If so, perfectly normal . it is supposed to do this .. it is a brake light CHECK and the check cannot occur without electricity .. which you provide by pressing the brake pedal.

ABS light and no speedo .. if you had a V6 you would also have a TC light on .. but the 2.2 don't get one of them .. :)  Its an ABS ECU failure.. needs fixing by a specialist .. about £130 ( BBA-Reman do them) or a new one from Vx  around £700 plus a tech2 fee to set up or a second hand one ... needs to be same car model/drive type/model year or also needs a tech2 to set up. Very fiddly job but not difficult.

the brake check comes and stuck on the screen when the lights is on if I pressed the brake pedal for 2 hours it is does not go??
ABS  and speedometer cannot solved by replacing the brake switch and why odometer is not running

If the brake check stays on .. have you checked ALL the brake light bulbs ?? if one has failed than that is why the "check" remains.

Brake check and ABS/ speedo are unrelated.

Speedo /odometer are linked .. both driven by an electronic signal via the ABS ECU

Check all rear lights for a blown bulb. Odometer will not register if speedo isn`t working.....and no, you won`t resolve the problem by replacing the brake switch.

Check the brake switch - this could cause both symptoms...
