Hi,my 2003 Stilo Multiwagon 115 JTD has the following fault:-when I start the engine only the airbag light is on and everything else is fine for as long as the car remains stationary but within a few seconds of moving off the engine will rev up erratically by itself when you lift your foot off the accellerator and when you use brakes the ABS cuts in every time,no matter how gently you brake.But after a minute or so of driving the ABS and ESP warning lights come on and the car then drives normally until you turn the engine off again and it's bake to square one.When the warning lights come on the display says"ABS failure,ASR failure,ESP failure and EBD failure" and this is accompanied by regular beeping until the end of the journey,and the handbrake warning light comes on sometimes as well.Battery voltage is 12.7 ,measured from positive to chassis,after the car has been sitting for several hours.Help please!

cured the problem - removed the big 60a fuse beside the battery

You haven't "cured the problem". By removing fuse F01 (60Amp) you've just deactivated the ABS and ASR system control unit.

Does the battery read 12.7 volts with, or without load?

12.7 volts is the reading when the engine is not running
