Default mk2 golf 16v electrical problem

hi guys, when i turn my ignition on everything seems to be backwards, i.e. the full beam light on my dash is reading on when it isnt, mu oil light is on and when the engine starts the clock turns itself off, also the engine cuts out unless you hold your foot on the accelerator pedal, it will not idle on its own without cutting out. any thoughts??? any help would be greatly appreciated. could it be a bad earth ??? if so how do i test this??? thanks again, very much. Greg

Sounds like your battery is failing. Same kind of symptoms I and lots of other people have had. You can have it tested but, mine tested good, got a new one problem solved.
