Default Intermitant faults

Intermittently the drivers air bag warning light comes on or the rear parking sensor sounds continually when in reverse or the message comes up no DSC. Or I get all three or any combination. Any ideas. Alan.

#1 suspect - battery on its way out.

Probably one of the cheapest and easiest things to change DIY.

Plus 2? On the battery. Jags act weird when the battery starts going south.

Next idea - water/damp in boot (trunk). Remove spare and check very very carefully.

All 3 faults just started at the same time? You need to stare at the wiring diags!
