OBDII scanner as useful as tits on a Mars bar on these, apart from a bit of engine data on petrols. You need proper diagnostics.

Good luck with readings don't know if there is anyone in your area S for cord gets ripped off sometimes so might be missing wait for switch or use fingers on flap

SRS fault can often be caused by low battery voltage, it needs to be cleared with diagnostics. Traction fault is also sometimes due to low battery voltage. Not all cars had the emergency release cord for the fuel flap.

the cord may be there just there is mass of dis used wires to get through cup of tea time then gonna have look.also gonna need to replace drivers door trim panel coz clips aint holding it in place. One thing the garage did say to try first is connecting the 2 battery terminals together briefly he said that sometimes clears the display messages dont know how true this is ???

Disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes will cause a cold restart on the ECU's but it will not clear an SRS Fault. Personally I would not short the ends together.
