   try to adjust handbrake ... and with other problems i dont know ...
   maybe abs saying last words and for your side rear - try to rebuild your caliper (piston, rings)

   when u doing up your hand brake ... check all the time after few adjuster turns ... good handbrake is 4 -5 notches
   p.s on my 1.1 .. handbrake is underneath of the car where is exhaust ... need take out the heat shield ... where is on vts ... sorry , i dont know
   fog lights takes a bit of energy ... btw ... check your wirings .... put some wd40 on connections ... i have similar problems as well but mine is not to bad ... but i think my alternator cant keep up with all my electronic devices

   handbrake light could be the switch. Thats located under the handbrake lever (little black push button). Very easy to replace.
   
   Rear brake not working may be stuck piston in the caliper. Rebuilding the caliper is the option here.
   
   ABS light may be the wheel sensor, Yo can get the car plugged in on a diagnostic machine which will tell you which sensor is out.

   I got the same problem on mine, did a live data reading and apparently the passenger front was doing 1016km/h!!! drivers rear was reading 191km/h and no reading from the other two. I'm thinking maybe ABS pump. Did you sort your problem yet?
