Just been there but slightly different codes.

Start with replacing brake switch (yes really, Google it), £10+ and 5 minutes work

Check battery voltage

Check alternator is working correctly

If these don't work then it starts getting more complicated........

Yes the switch is a common problem even if the brake lights work ok as it has two circuits inside.
The other common fault is the brake light bulbs, if a filiment breaks off and touches the other circuit it can confuse the canbus.

What symptoms are there on the car or are you just getting fault codes?

Check your earth straps (thoroughly) Also, P0562, P1811, and P1807 could indicate water ingress/corrosion at the TCM terminals or one of the plugs on the transfer case.

check the front engine one located behind the drivers side front wheel arch liner it connects the engine, chassis and body.
there is also another one that connects the transfer case to the chassis

That plug is used when the car is new.
It's fine like that


Either water split on the Hi Lo switch or some other fault with it or the wiring.
There are fault codes saying as much

It’s all part of the console switch pack.
It’s like a tv remote control if you have ever serviced one of those.

I’ve opened it up and looked at it can see any issues but no lights light up at all on the board apart from the suspension. No water damage only thing I can think off if the kids have stood on that part and broke it

clear the faults. See what comes back.

As AJ said, look at the ecu end.
And resistance test the switch wires at the ecu connector if the fault codes are still present
