How can I fix number of electric problems on Galaxy ?

I have a number of problems that have appeared recently on my ford galaxy 1.9TDI 2003. The first is the parking distance control playing up by coming on and staying on. although occasionally they work. The second is brake pad warnings and check brakepads on startup although they have been checked out professionally and no issues with pads or discs, ABS also tends to come on. the thrid is the remote control key fob fails although sometimes opens but now nevers locks, manually all ok including alarme set, have tried to re-synch but does not seem to work.

parking sensors could be loose or damp in the connectors where they attach to the sensors behind the bumper.
brake pad warnings again have been down to rusty connections where they plug in to the brake pads
abs could be a faulty sensor/rusty abs ring or bad connection
broken wiring looms to doors is another common issue.check wiring in the rubbers that goes from the car body to the doors.also check tailgate rubber for bad/broken wiring
Vagcom lead of ebay would give you help by displaying fault codes logged in the cars ecu
