DalesC4,
I noticed that none of the forum members have answered your posting. I am guessing it's because you seem to being using some form of short-hand we don't understand. You need to spell out what each and every issue is, when it happens, and status of the ignition/engine when it does or does not happen. Is the car sitting and running, is it going down the highway, or is it sitting with the key in the on position but not running configuration?
You have to help us help you. Specific questions get specific answers. Welcome, and good luck with your project

1- Check/replace your flasher unit with a long life one.

2- Remove, test, clean your wiper switch, if that does not work, check your ground wires for continuity, if good, check your motor/ if bad replace motor.

3-Check/replace brake light switch.

Be pushed thru the bracket a little and now all good

I have stripped the car for paint
And door trims are away getting repaired
Will work on the other bits
