HELP with EML on tigra and FAULT codes

Hi guys Bought a tigra for my girlfriend about 4 months ago since it has been sat on the drive whilst she does her driving lessons i have started it a few times but since she has her test within 2 weeks i thought id better MOT it which it passed but might need new petrol tank and powerd steering pump is leaking, the MOT cost me £45 due to it been one of these new ones that take and hour or so.

Anyway took the car out for a quick run yesterday when the engine managment light came on but the car was running fine. Switched it of and it struggled to start, when it finaly started it ran like shoot and the revs wouldn't drop very quickly. Tuck the car home and the engine managment light went of. Started it a few times and it seems fine now.

Been to halfrauds and got a fault reader which reads

Fault 85 (Injector valve 5 - voltage low) Action Injector short to ground or lead open circuit.

Fault 29 (Injector 5 - Voltage High) Action injector short - batt volts

Fault 14 (Coolant temp - voltage low)

Any help what the exact problem might be? or what i need to do now?

Could it just be the battery is ****ed up? hope so

Shockingly, yes, vauxhall will be able to help.
There only about 15 quid anyway.
