Car will not start, new battery, not starter

Alright, so the other night I was waiting for someone in accessory to listen to music while I wait and when I went to start it, nothing. Drove fine before it, and had no preexisting issues that would suggest something was wrong with it. It's not the starter, and it's not the battery as I got a new one. MHD is giving me the following codes:
2a61 - ignition relay and injectors, supply voltage, line disconnection
2db6 - Valvetronic relay, line disconnection
371e - relay, ignition and injection systems, line disconnection
It's a 2012 135i (posted it here because I figured 3 series might have the same problem), with 58k miles, MHD stage 1+ and a CP. Others have said it sounds like the engine is not getting fuel so I'm thinking it may be just a fried relay or wire. Does anyone have this or similar experience? Any help would be nice, thanks in advance.

Yes, it does. I took it to a local shop and they said they tested it and no power was getting to the injectors and something else so I'm thinking it's just a relay. I ordered a new one and it should be here tomorrow or the next day.

Replacing new batteries requires connecting OBD devices for matching

Sorry I didn't update this sooner. I took it to a shop in the town over (EuroSports in Spartanburg SC) and it ended up being a distributor box and it was not sending enough power to the fuse box in the engine bay. Hope this helps someone and thanks to all who replied
