evening ladies and gents a little help if you please.

I ve had my e30 318i H reg for four mnths or so and used it every day as my daily runner with no major problems till now..
Returned to the car after it being sat for a few days and the breaks where really seized on ? After 3 days isn't that a bit odd?
Well anyway I ve just got back and as I pulled on my drive 3 lights appeared on the dash
1) battery
2) parking light
3) is a ! With a circle round it with ().
Also the temp gauge started to raise and the fan isn't working.

Will I be looking for a new fan?
Thanks to all in advance

Go outside and check if your fan belt is still attached to the car

Just fit a new belt and you may have to charge the battery if its been driven far without the alternator working.
The lights should go out once its all working again.
