Default Mechanical / Electronic issues

Hi Everyone, I'm new into this group
I'm from Curacao (Caribbean) Next to Aruba

This is my first Corvette C5

I Bought it with some electronic / mechanical issues but I know we could fix them with your help
I have issues with
*All dash lights are on (airbag/fuel not leveled/door ajar/check engine/check gages and so on)
*every time I take the keys out the contact I need to take of the battery off, put it back on and to start it again
and it gives me the error (gives me the error "reduced engine power")

but then again car drives as a smooth operator (-:


Thank you in advance for accepting into this group

regards

Valentino
