Hmm your batter voltage is a bit high when it's on... it could be a bad alternator. You might want to check the alternators voltage.

I'm assuming that all your problems appeared at once, so correct me if i'm wrong as there are other potential fixes in that case. At this point I would think the SRS light was probably triggered by an electrical problem (surge or lack of current). Unfortunately the only way to know is to reset it and see if it comes back.

Is yours a bosch or gems? And when you say no brakes, do you mean nothing, or do you have to push extremely hard?

The voltage is only high by about .3 volts, what does show to be wrong is the voltage in the battery with the engine of, which should be in the low to mid 13.4 range.

Engine off the voltage should be around 12v and on it should be around 13.7. I would still check the alternator as 14.7 is high.

GEMS have a plenum chamber with Land Rover and 4.0 or 4.6 on the cover. Bosch engines do not.
