Default 1996 C230K brake system warning lights- help!

Hi Guys,

I would be grateful for any help- In the past week I've started having problems with my 1996 C230K. The following lights come on a few seconds after starting the car and stay on:

-ABS light
-handbrake on-light
-brakepad wear light
also
-speedo doesn't work
-odometer doesn't work

A few days ago they were all intermittant problems, but now the 3 lights stay on (from 2 secs after start-up) and the speedeo & odo don't work 100% of the time. (Also actual ABS doesn't work since this problem started). My car doesn't have ASD.

Hopefully it's a simple electrical connection issue (thought about connector to a wheel sensor) - but where do I start ?
Can anyone help please?

Thanks.

Apologies, just read C280 instrument cluster and danj111's posting sounds the exact same problem.

I will try the overvoltage protection relay fuse, then the relay itself.

Is that the relay attached to the ABS controller ?

Thanks Enz.
