You did not reset anything

What you did was clear all data, needed
in order to check for OBD Codes & look at
freeze frame data, that is there when fault codes
are set

You need all the info you can get, to work on diagnosing
vehicle problems

Cure what problem?

What codes do you have?

Brain box

It definitely sounds like an electrical problem. You should add more details to narrow the search.....such as it works sometimes.....or it is worse on humid or rainy days. These kind of details would indicate a faulty, or dirty connection. It does sound like the first place to start would be the ECU or main computer. I myself would disconnect the connectors in and out of that black box. Then I would spray them with electrical cleaner/lubricant then see if that helps. Of course swapping out a known good ECU would really help, but returning one of those could be problematic if that didnt cure your problem. If it is the humidity because of the change of seasons.....try letting the car dry out in the sun with the doors open.

Everytime you put petrol in the car the engine management light comes on saying motor control system failure and stay on until cleared why and can it be repaired

I would first renew the petrol tank cap, or the gasket on it, if you can obtain one. Then see if the fault is cured. It is very common for a worn cap to cause the engine check light to glow, on any make.
To reset the ECU this procedure is said to work, although I think it is very weird. It would not seem to be damaging though

The ECU doesn't have anything to do with lights, windows or blower on your vehicle. Fuse or burned ground wire in those circuits if far more likely. Get a wiring diagram and find the common /fuseswires to those circuits.
