VerifiedHello, first step is to fully charge, or replace the 12 volt battery if it is still dead.
the P0A0f is engine failed to start, this commonly is a dirty air flow sensor, easy and free first thing to check. Make sure air filter seal is not rolled over or jammed in the cover. Allows the dirt to get in.
To remove need a stubby phillips screw driver. Remove and clean with brake cleaner in the tiny hole that has 2 wires for flow sensing, look for debris first. blow out with compressed air.
Reinstall, clear codes and try again.
Make sure plenty of fuel in the tank, low fuel will cause it to not run of course.
Also a dirty throttle body, or overfilled engine oil can cause issues like this too.
Drain some oil and clean the throttle and soak up any oil pooling in the intake under the throttle.
p2135 is Throttle Pedal Position Sensor/Switch 'A'/'B' Voltage Correlation, could also be a damaged engine throttle body if it was wrecked, or a dirty throttle.
Please try the steps above and report back please.
