My ecu started playing up the abs light would come on then my engine would stall I found out that my battery wasn't putting out enough cold cranking amps so I bought a new battery but it still has the same issues and it has drained my new battery completely In a day I'm wondering what the issue could be and how I can fix it any advice would be great cheers

IT sounds like you need to check the alternator, if this unit fails it can cause the battery to go dead which will make the engine stall and the lights come on you described. Let me know what you find :-)
