Your entirely welcome. It sure is cool that something I find so entertaining also provides a benefit.

As to the codes, If you go to the article and view chart #3, you will get the answer as to the basic code meaning. I did this and of course your numbers don't work. I presume you have misidentified them. It is pretty easy and is why in the text I give an example and a picture of the way a code B1234. First the code system has been standardized and "B" stands for body in the same since as Emissions codes start with "P" for powertrain. Due to the way the display is made the the full code will be split with three characters on the left and three on the right. The code B1234 was given as an example (sun sensor - almost always a code). It looked like this: Eb1 234. The E standing for error and the b in the lower case with the first diget of the code on the left; so the code is B1234.

I presume there should be a "1" placed in front of each of the numbers listed in your post.

I wouldn't worry about any of those codes. It is common for the car to accumulate such codes over time. I imagine they have been accumulating since new. Delete them and check periodically. I would not worry about codes if there are no symptoms.

Actually I just reread your post and was about to give this comment but it really applies here. I was going to state that most codes come during momentary periods where the battery voltage drops below 9v. Since you had battery problems I believe that to be your code setter, maybe even the the source of the control problem...reboot it.
