Can you tell us how you are retrieving the error codes? It's something to confirm in the troubleshooting process because if you are using ISTA with a K+DCAN cable and laptop, and your network settings are not correct and your latency setting is higher than "1," then ISTA is not able to reliably communicate with the modules. This is where you typically see the "Lost communication" codes and ghost codes that actually are not there.

It's mostly useless for me to guess what is wrong, but if the car was in a crash, it makes me think that it could have something to do with how the car handles a crash and what failsafe systems and "crash data" it uses to stop the engine (or prevent the engine from running after a crash), deploy airbags, etc. I dont know if there is a procedure that requires modules that identify a 'crash' to be reset or cleared before standard operation can occur, but it's something to consider.

More info on the damage from the crash might be helpful to know.
