Four strange problems

BAW24P

Being doing some flying today and found three strange problems. Very much welcome any suggestions please...

When flying, if I press ESC to go into the sim options. When I've made my change, usually to some graphics setting, I go back to the sim and suddenly I've got engine failure and a Christmas tree of warning light. Regardless of any actions by me, the RAT does deploy but I can't get the engine to restart?
Flying around RAF Valley (EGOV) I followed another Hawk to land and park. When I pulled up beside the other Hawk I noticed it was hovering about 3 feet in the air! Why is that happening?
I watch cgiaviator on YouTube, especially his Hawk videos. I see him turning on the landing lights but when I try to click the switch (in VR but using my mouse) I get a click, the landing lights flash but stay on and the switch doesn't move.
I'm having a lot of problems selecting anything on the EFB, regardless of its position. I can not get the Autopilot Master to turn on, if I click Alt Hold I see the number of the Alt below the buttons but all the buttons stay red and the autopilot does not engage.

All a bit strange... Time to reinstall?

@baw24p for point 1, unbind your mixture setting. For some reason, the mixture (which isn't used in the Hawk) controls the fuel flow. For the others, not sure.

Thanks @katchaplin, that worked like a charm.

So I've got some answers, so posting in case it helps others...

@katchaplin had the perfect answer, it was the mapping of mixture.
There is freeware scenery for RAF Valley (EGOV) and there appear to be differences in the terrain levels.
Once again a mapping conflict. I searched for the landing light and found a button mapping that was in conflict with and switch on the cockpit panel.
Yet again a mapping conflict... starting to see a bit of a pattern here. I had the Autopilot Master mapped to a switch and that was stopping / conflicting with the EFB buttons.
