Hi, have a 'check engine', diagnosed it and there were 2 fault codes and I couldn't reset them, may someone write their meaning please.

You understand that you can't clear faults if the underlying problem is still present? You need to investigate the fault first, so to do that you will first need to provide your VIN. Please post your VIN in full without spaces - it will be automatically masked from public view after submitting your post & will only be visible to staff. I'll take a look once I know your specific vehicle details and systems.
