Which warnings lights come on with ignition?

Do they all come on? Can't see my little group of 3 in the middle light up above the trip odometer - its ABS, 4x4 and brakes or something isn't it?
Looked on you tube at an instrument cluster test nr2 and only the middle one came on, as did mine - do the two either side not light up when you put the ignition on the same as oil pressure, battery etc?

I've trawled some more you tube clips, seems only the middle one does, if you'd have asked me I'd have put money on everything lighting up, guess I don't pay that much attention!

Just done the LCD screen change so thought I might have broken something!

No, my top tip would be to send it off and get it done, it was a bloody nightmare!
