    Recently got a 2013 Fiat Doblo MYLife 1.4 petrol.  For no apparent reason an error message came up. ESR Hill holder unavailable. Along with a triangle within a circle light and the ESR selection button by the handbrake stays illuminated.  Done a few things to try resolve this. 1..New brake light switch.  2.. New Battery. 3..checked all ABS connections. 4..Checked and cleaned all battery & fusebox connections. 5..Added additional Earth strap, (just as a belt & braces precaution).  Fault still shows on Dash, but no noticeable effect on anything while driving.  Purely annoyance value. I dont know how to clear the fault. My plug in says no faults.  Ive disconnected the battery to reset computer but still it remains.  Any ideas?

    Finally got to the bottom off this, so posting in case its any use to anyone else.  Borrowed a better diagnostic machine from a mate. A topdon ArtiDiag600s. This found a fault in the ABS system that was actually steering alignment sensor.  Reset the steering on the machine and after clearing the code it went away.
