Ford Focus 1.6tdci 55 plate - Dashboard Problems - 3puddings

The handbarke warning light is on constantley, the indicator relay is not clicking even thought the indicators are working, and they are not displayed on the IP neither is the full beam indicator coming on. Also the Alarm does not come on when I use the fob.

I have disconnected the battery to allow the ECU to reset and the problem stays. Anyone got any advice

It was the cables going into the fusebox under the dashboard that was the problem. Thanks for the info.
