Hello & Welcome

replacing the clocks wont turn out the lights.
you will have to investigate, and fix each issue.

Sounds like a dodgy ABS ECU wants repair / replacing
Your door motor will need changing

You will need to plug it into a diag computer yourself to see what the airbag faults are

You can check the engine codes with just a paperclip.

Hi Paul and welcome to the forum.

The door is a faulty driverside door actuator, they cost about £15 secondhand. The lights on the dash are warning lights. If the TC and ABS light is on and the speedo doesnt work then its probaly the ABS ECU as for the engine management light you'll have to do the paperclip test to get the codes.
