Hello all.
Got some problems where I would like some help.
Getting intermittent MIL, Handbrake, ESP/ASR and other warning captions, not all the same time.
MIL may be present at start up or not.
MIL may appear at engine idle after a run of a few miles.
MIL may not show one day, but will show the next day or so.
There was a short time where the engine responded to a power request with a bit of splutter, or at least appeared to, for a second or so.
Otherwise the engine seems to run fine.
Here is a simple diagnostic report...

Also, although not picked up by the diagnostics, the Drivers door cannot be opened by keyless entry, although it can be locked.
It was intermittent for a while, but now dead to the touch. Again, suspect connections?
B1138, Don't know why, as the dipped and main beams work.
Based on web searches, the fusebox and battery connections appear to be an area of concern.
The battery was replaced in November 2022 with no apparent problems.
Suggestions please,
Cheers.
