05 r53 electrical issues

Hey all. On my way to work this morning I had some scary electrical gremlins. First my seatbelt light came on, next my indicator lights stopped working. Soon after my emergency flashers turned themselves on. Parked restarted, got to work, but my dash lighting wouldn't turn off. Disconnected the battery and everything seemed fine for a few minutes until the indicators refused to work. Lights and signals are working just fine on the outside of the car. It's also running fine. I've been ignoring a wheel speed sensor all winter but I can't imagine that suddenly caused all of this. Checked some fuses, did an ECU reset, but haven't dug any deeper yet. I did find a slight bit of moisture in the battery compartment. Any ideas?
