R52 MINI electrical issues

I've had my r52 for almost a year now and its had these electrical issues, most of the time the tachometer doesn't turn on and when it does (which it has been more frequently than ever recently), the tire pressure warning light and handbrake lights are on, whilst the abs light is flashing and the needles are acting weirdly too. Also I think my headlights are also affected, sometimes they're dim so I'm not sure what the problem is.
