First check all your fuses in the large fusebox in the engine compartment, it is unlikely that your turn signal and wiper problem is due to the relay being faulty as it is a module with a bank of relays inside for the separate systems , more likely that fuses have blown.
Can you describe in more detail what the problem is with your gauges in the instrument panel.

All I can think of about your gauges is that you have a poor contact at the plugs on the back of the instrument panel or the earth lead for the panel.
