Default Abs, tc, fuel gauge, heaters n sterio all stopped working

Hi everyone. Iv had my p38 since September and not had a fault with it.
recently the old battery started getting drained and the truck dead locked itself,
managed to get in and pop the bonnet to access the battery and charge it up,
had 0 problems again for 2 weeks then I had an abs sensor fail, (wire broke)
replaced abs sensor and still no abs or tc, plugged truck in and says it’s getting no power yet the other 3 are running at 2.3 yet front right that reads 0 has power when plugged into multi meter,
so I bought another abs sensor. More expensive and still no luck,
then 2 days later I lose power to heaters, sterio, cig lighter,
read online it could be because of the faulty battery so purchased a brand new battery, checked it was fully charged and fitted it to the truck,
now my fuel gauge has stopped working aswel,
it’s my 1st Range Rover and as much as I love it I’m regretting leaving discoveries now.
many help would be very much appreciated

check your fuses. It seems rather coincidental but it is the first step to figuring it all out.

Also, download the owner's manual and service manuals from the google drive linked in my signature.

Dawsey welcome here. I haven’t had any ABS issues on mine (so far) so I won’t be much help. As Walt says download the manuals and go step by step. I’ve had my P38 for 4 1/2 years now and I really love it, but my first 1 1/2 years with it, all I did was fix one thing after another. It’s been very good for the last 3 years now. I hope you persist as these are really great vehicles.

I am almost through the first part of this description. Why doesn't anyone take care of the little things?

Yeah Walt I agree. Mine had been serviced by the original LR dealer in Vancouver for the entire 20 years before I got it. I think they don’t really like trouble shooting beyond what Testbook tells them.
