Brake "Christmas lights" issue, who can figure this one out!

Brake "Christmas lights" issue, who can figure this one out!
I’ve recently been having a problem with my 2011 FORD FUSION HYBRID
where a bunch of warning chimes come on at once. ABS, Brake system, Advancetrac all go off when the car is started after being off for awhile. Power braking turns off so all there is left is super jerky hydraulic braking that feels like I'm doing one leg squats. After it runs for a little I can restart the vehicle and the lights will all disappear and power braking will come back. Seems as if this only happens after a prolonged period of time without the engine running (about 8 hours or so).
I bought a scanner that can read ABS and SRS codes and downloaded Forscan so I could pull information from the computer, but while I’ve done drivetrain work before I have no idea what these codes are saying. I’m hoping it’s a wheel sensor but I’m kinda nervous about it being ABS, because I’m super broke and can’t afford that right now. Maybe someone can help me out?
THE BATTERY WAS JUST REPLACED. PROBLEM OCCURRED BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER SO THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM, I know they're finicky on the Hybrids.
I’ve also attached a picture of the cluster when the lights go off.
