Exact same thing (codes) happened to my 03 Coupe last year. It came down to replacing the Steering Wheel Position Sensor. Part ~$80. Labor @ dealer ~$250. I had the dealer do it because I didn't want to deal with the air bag. (steering column has to come out). It seems it is a fairly common failure item. (read - cheaply made)

Hope that helps.
