Engine and ESP problem in a Peugeot 2008

Good evening to the community, I have a 2017 Peugeot 2008 with a Diesel engine and 88000 kilometers. I am facing the following problem: The engine shuts off by itself and when the car is with the clutch and brake engaged, the ESP malfunction light comes on suddenly and the engine shuts off. When I start it again, the indicator is gone and my mechanic says he can't find anything in the engine control unit. This happens to me several times a day. What can I do? Thank you in advance for your help.

A 2017 Peugeot 2008 with a Diesel engine is experiencing an issue where the engine shuts off unexpectedly, particularly when the clutch and brake are engaged, and the ESP malfunction light appears. The problem resolves temporarily upon restarting, but no faults are detected in the engine control unit. A suggested solution is to check and ensure the battery connections are clean and tight, as weak or loose connections might cause such electrical issues. If the problem continues, testing the battery and alternator is recommended.

Check the battery connections and ensure they are clean and tight. A weak or loose connection can cause electrical issues that might lead to the engine shutting off. If the problem persists, consider having the battery and alternator tested. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions.
