It is your battery. Replace it and you will be good as new.
It has happened to me 2x now.
The 2001 Chrysler and Dodge minivan's are plagued with wiring issues, specifically in the brake system where it was redesigned, rerouted, and re-engineered SEVERAL times.
You have a wiring issue (likely wire chaffing in the under carriage).

brake trouble light comes on
My 2001 Dodge Caravan Sport has recently (approx. 100,000 mi.) had the brake light come on intermittently (approx 30 min. to 1 hour). A few days later the speedometer went dead for a day or 2 and then suddenly started working again.
Just bought a Chrysler Pacifica 2006 (49,000 miles). Day after I bought it, I have had problems with brake light and ABS light coming on intermittently, and making warning noise. The lights in the van flutter. I also hear a popping noise as if coming from the stereo - but sounds like a rock hitting window. Brought back to dealer, had it for a week and they say when they drive it, it doesn't happen, and none of the tests they run it through show a problem. Very frustrated. (They replaced battery - just got it back today, and it is happening again.)
