I don't know how to read codes but I'd check all ground wires including both wires going to the starter.

Sometimes you can't trust testers at stores. My grandpa had his alternator tested on his vette and it showed up
bad. Then he asked them to test a new one and it tested bad to lol. Turns out his wire was bad going to the alternator. What I'm getting to is your battery may have been fine.

Check for loose wires and check fuses, and if it's a stick try push starting it.
