After picking my car up yesterday. It was in the garage having a wire loom fix. due to a relay problem.

I was looking forward to having some fun over the holiday.. but the drive was the worst drive ever. First thing the bonnet open up while driving simple fix. Catch was not pushed in. so not a great start. So I went off again. Then the window wipers would come on and turn off on there own. And the fans seem to stay on, I had this problem before. but i mange to get home. I let some time go by and thought I would try again later on in the day, to see if the problems have gone. Only to find out there where no dial lights in the dash or head lights and all the indicators where orange.
any ideas what it might be. cheers

It obviously needs to go to a proper auto-electrician.

Check the earth on the front chassis by the radiator. If this is loose then it can cause these symptoms.
