try cleaning up some of the earths on your car,like behind the side panels in the footwells. i did this while fitting a stereo,and before i did it i sometimes got phantom readings,but afterwards it stopped!

The headlamp symbol represents a blown bulb mate. It also tests the brake lamps too - if you put your foot on the brake, the symbol should go out.

Faults with it are likely to be earth related as bigwig says
