It would help to know what MY the vehicle is, but with all those codes thrown at once, I'd be looking at the battery for starters


recommend adding a signature to your profile, including Model and year, to better assist in answering questions

They all point to a Flux Capacitor malfunction.

As mentioned, make sure your battery is fully charged. Clear the codes and see which ones return after a short drive. Hopefully you will have a much shorter list.

Lots of codes can be set from previous incidents and service which are not relevant any more and if they are not cleared they will continue to accumulate.

No, that never displays fault codes, just causes unexplained and unexpected time displacement.

This is most likely a wonky brake light switch.

Don't waste your and our time on historical codes that may mean nothing. Codes could have been unintentionally set during earlier repair work. Clear the codes and see which come back, then we will help you with what remains.
