The following dash warning lights are on

oil
airbags
engine
abs
trac off
trac low

the temp gauge isn't rising at all and the fuel gauge says the tank is full when i know it's almost empty.

And worst of all... the power button isn't working.

Can anyone help.

As Burn454 said, it is most likely the ABS module. Could be a bad or dirty connection or the module itself. A very common problem.

I didnt think the ABS module affected gauges such as temp etc, nor did it effect the power and trac contrl.

definitely your abs module. mine done the same thing and the fans on the radiator come on as well even when its cold. i changed the computer (bcm,ecu,key remote) and started the car and it still came on. i finally bit the bullet and changed the abs module, all fixed now. i got mine for $80 and changed it myself, if you have ever done flared pipework before its a piece of cake!
