1.8 ES Dash Board Cut Out + Warning Lights

[Black Rat JBJ]

Hi, got another Freelander to cart my Great Dane around in -
Twice now it has juddered going up hill, causing the TC light and hill descent light to come on, as well as knocking out the rev counter and temperature gauge.

It became sluggish for about a mile and when it happened to the Mrs, she said the steering got heavy as well.

Lights stayed on and dials off until I'd stopped and turned it off, locked and unlocked it ad started it again.

Any ideas?

It's a '52 plate with about 88k on it.

Thanks - Jon

There was that wiring advisory, the loom chaffing under main fuse box - sorry a bit vague but somebody will know more!?
