Was the car jump started? Could possibly be a fused circuit?

Duff/dying battery can throw up all sorts of codes. Is the car driving okay? Those codes could be years old and not cleared.

I would fit a fresh battery, clear all the codes, go for a long, gentle drive then check codes again.

Just out of interest - how do you clear the codes?

You can buy code readers from the internet and these should feature a reset facility. Or pay a garage a few quid to do it for you.
