Will this pass FHA inspection?

I have a property under contract and I'm in the 2nd day of our 2 day inspection. I had the property inspected yesterday and the property was solid structurally, plumbing, and electric wise, but it did have a bunch of minor problems here and there:
- Guard rail on stairs needs reinforcement
- 3 faucets need replacing
- Water line not hooked up to one toilet
- Washer not hooked up
- Couldn't get Furnace to work due to Thermostat not functioning correctly
- Dead mouse in a trap in crawl space
- upstairs bedroom door needs re-adjustment - doesn't close shut

Would this prevent the property from passing an FHA inspection? The bank said they won't fix anything...

Ummm...do you have access to the house? I could fix all of that in under 2 hours and about $100, and I'm not all that handy.

I don't know if it would bother FHA or not, but if you are worried about it.......
