Our database does not have any information on your vehicle and I could not find any references to the codes you have posted so I am sorry to say I am not able to assist you on this problem.

Let us hope somebody else has an answer for you.

Thank you.

Vehicles nowadays are rather complicated and complex and we are US based so our database contains vehicles sold in the US therefore information for others are not available.

Not all experts are are able to help in all cases and if I fail to, there could be others that can help.
