Hi and welcome to the A2oc.

Sorry you are having trouble. It would help the tec guys on here if you could post the fault codes you have read.

It would help with a more detailed response.

Good luck.

What you're describing is the diagnostic software/hardware system that they used to obtain those codes.

Cheers,
