The brake fluid/ anti lock lights on together flag the bake power assist mechanism. This is confirmed by your "rock hard" observation for the brake pedal. Saab has a clever approach to obtaining boost for the brake system. They use part of the ABS system consisting of a hydraulic pump and an accumulator to store high pressure that the brakes take advantage of when you push on the pedal to stop the car. Apparently this doesn't work on your car. The reason for this can be a simple as corroded connector pins or it can be that the assembly has failed and needs to be replaced. That runs into a lot of cash, as I understand. I would start by searching this site for info. This has been discussed at length several times. Good Luck.
