the time is in Australia, where forklift action's servers are.
I am pretty sure you will need to change the dash panel to get it to drive correctly again, although this may be that you are getting water and dirt into the obd2 connector causing the shorts that caused the relays and now the dash panel to have a problem.
does it drive now?

this is an indication that the dash panel, and the ecm are not communicating properly with the VCM, as would happen if the can bus were broken. this can be a disconnection or it can be the dash panel itself.
are there any symptoms?
does it drive? does it run? does it work fine except it shows these codes when you first turn on the key (but they go away when it is running? have you tried to clear the codes?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
