Before condemning any parts, what is the age and condition of the battery? A failing or weak battery can cause random DTCs and instrument cluster warnings.

Is the MIL on? If so, what DTCs are stored?

With the ignition in the OFF position for ten or more minutes, there should be at least 12.6 volts across the terminals.

Many of the electrical 'gremlins' discussed on these forums are the result of the battery needing to be replaced.

If you have access to a charger, charge the battery overnight with the terminal leads disconnected.
