They seem like electrical and connections problems. Only way to solve these is to check every connector/connection, resolder everything that looks out of whack, and make sure every single connection is firm and that you have sprayed that "electrical connection conductor" thingamyjig spray all over (forget its name )

Your drivers side key switch is in poor or bad condition. You can access it by removing the drivers door inner panel, and then check it with a muilti-meter (don't use a test light to check the switch; the switch is only rated for 500Ma).

The clock and idiot light assembly needs to be re-soldered. There are only about 5 or 6 threads on this if you use the search function.

My friend that had a 91 NA had that problem for a while. He just took that panel out and did a verification on all the connections and he found out that one was grounding out.
