Both of these codes are called signal low codes. That basically means that you probably have a short to ground in some wiring.

What I would do is start with running through the P0245 code testing and find out what is there to know if we have a wiring issue.

More than likely this is a different wiring issue for each code but I suspect you have had some mice chew a couple wires, so we need to look for signs of nests and then check the wiring in that area.

Please see the specific testing for the codes below. Let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
