I have a 2014 j11 1.5 d and have quite a few faults come on at the same time
1 auto stop/start system fault
2 air con stopped working
3 reverse camera inoperative
4 reverse lights inoperative
5 amber park brake warning lamp illuminated
6 radio switching itself off
7 intermittent flashing of key code not detected
8 vehicle starts when clutch or brake pedal depressed , now doesn't start when brake pressed?

Has been into dealers for repair once and was cured for 6 days !!!
Has anyone else had any similar problems or ideas ???

Sounds like maybe an earthing issue. Just a guess, but maybe.

Doubtful that an earthing issue would cause multiple faults on differnt circuits, unless virtually all the earth points suddenly went bad. Have you had the battery checked, because 'sometimes' low battery voltage, even by a single volt, can disrupt the system. Just because the car starts well is no indication of a good battery.

What, like the battery earth? That's every circuit!! Was only a guess anyways.

Let's hope the dealer sorts it once and for all. Checking the battery condition and the tightness of the ground connection are also sensible procedures when electrical gremlins come calling.

A poor battery earth connection wouldn't be selectively problematic on certain circuits. It would affect everything and quickly reduce the ability of the battery to perform at all. The sigh was in despair.
