Wipers / Windscreen washers not working + Warning lights

Hi All,

A few months back someone attempted to steal my cab.

In the process, the ignition switch was damaged. The ignition switch was repaired and steering column plastics were replaced also. So the next step was roof replacement.
I started the car and found two new faults.
1. Wipers and windscreen washers not working.
2. Several warning lights staying on once the car starts, eg, battery light, oil pressure light and auto transmission light.

Any one have any ideas ?

Thanks in advance.

1/ What about the brake lights, glove box light and indicators?
2/ The battery warning light is the important one here. Either there's something amiss with the alternator, or a problem with the small blue wire that runs from the alternator, through pin 1 of the C101 engine loom plug and socket to the instrument cluster.

Thanks Brian,

Will check the brake lights and indicators.
I have a feeling that the alternator is playing up, Im going to ask my auto electrician to troubleshoot it and take it from there then.
