One more photo. Also, this may be the last adventure for the little car. I'm looking for my next daily-driver/winter-racecar. Going to miss the little bugger if so.

Check for the leftovers of a melted bag on your exhaust.
If it's a manual trans, could be clutch burning. Makes a very acrid smell.

Is your brake fluid low? That's really the only thing that should be able to turn the lights on w/o having a code. If somethings was unplugged/broken it *should* have a code.

Likely one of two things:
