guess not

Not sure but I think your battery should be around 14v. When cranking this will go down and if it's at 12v then you maybe getting too low of a voltage and some systems are no starting....your car also disables features to save battery charge. Sounds like your battery needs to be replaced. Idk why ABS and DTC would be disabled but maybe your battery is just in really bad shape. I have an '06 and my battery is fine...yours should be too but things happen.
