Balance shaft delete and ~245,000 miles.

I got most of these identified, but there's a couple I can't find. I'd also like confirmation that I am chasing the right things.

Engine:
16485 P0101 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circ Range/Performance
16486 P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circ Low Input
16512 P0128 Coolant Thermostat/Valve Temperature below control range
16786 P0402 Exhaust Gas Recirc.Flow Excessive Detected
17058 p0674 cylinder 4 glow plug circuit intermittent
17978 P1570 Contr.Module Locked
19557 ?
19558/P3102/012546 - Motor for Intake Manifold Flap (V157): No Signal
So it looks like I nee a new MAF; it's been flaky so no surprise. Probably a thermostat? Also no surprise since mine seems stuck open. Inspect and service the EGR system. Glow plug on #4: tune up time? 17978 doesn't seem to be a real thing since it starts right up. Somehow related to salvaged CCM? Intake manifold flap?

Transmission:
17100/P0716/001814 - Transmission Input Speed Sensor (G182): Implausible Signal
17125/P0741/001857 - Torque Converter Clutch: Stuck OFF / No Power being transferred
18258/P1850 - Powertrain Data Bus: Missing Message from ECU
Looks like a TC failure, better than a transmission failure. Jeff called that one. What's this speed input sensor and data bus issue?

SRS
00532 - Supply Voltage B+: Signal too Low
00591 - Seat Belt Switch; Driver (E24): Resistance too High
00592 - Seat Belt Switch; Passenger (E25): Resistance too High
01217 - driver airbag fault
01218 - passenger airbag fault
Replace my failed battery. New seat belt switches? The airbag faults are from running it without the seats in.

ABS:
01423 - Lateral Acceleration Sensor (G200): No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation
01424 ?
WHAT ARE THESE?!?

Thanks in advance for helping to identify these issues for either me or the next owner.

make sure your battery is fully charged, read and clear codes see what returns.
Oh fine! The battery is seriously the stock original battery and it is quite dead. I'll replace it.

Don't think that's gonna fix my transmission problem though.

I can't say that a battery change fixed it, but at least it did clear up a whole lot of codes. I should have known to just stick a reliable battery in. And doing so allowed me to clear a majority of the codes. I took a drive around the block, and it dropped back into transmission limp mode.

What's left:

Engine:
17058 p0674 cylinder 4 glow plug circuit intermittent

Trans:
17100/P0716/001814 - Transmission Input Speed Sensor (G182): Implausible Signal

ABS:
01423 - Lateral Acceleration Sensor (G200): No or Incorrect Basic Setting / Adaptation
01424 ?

The glow plug is probably a poor signal from a rodent-chewed plug wire.
The problem with my transmission limp mode seems to be a bad Input speed sensor. Seems like an easy fix, but I'm having a hard time finding a set of instructions for replacing it. Thay also probably not gonna fix my lack of reverse; I read in another thread Oilhammer describing the issue with that. Something about a pump and the gear burning out.
