Kindly need help with codes for pre purchase please.

These are the Codes for the 2006 manual vantage. 30k km (18k miles ish)
Blazing sun in Riyadh, Saudi (idk if it matters for mechanical stuff)
If you guys can confirm that the first 3 codes are 99% the secondary air pump (some call it smog pump ) and that it won't harm the car just could affect passing emissions.
is it hard labor? heard it was between the V under the inlet manifolds.
I think the 4th code (P1488) is just the exhaust fuse right?
Lastly the last code couldn't find info on it online. But from test drive the traction control works but the button to turn it off doesn't.
Need to decide so I take the car to a PPI (I do not think these will be checked by anyone for less than 1k $) ppi here is 350$ ish from the dealer even.
Thank you so much.
PS: car drove very well but It was 30 mins ish from starting the engine chilling for 15 mins go out for 10 go back and wait 5 ish then turn it off and stay around it for 10 more.
drove only 1 other aston was 4.7 auto quiet similar feel and sound.

Traction control is working, you need to press and hold for 5-seconds to turn off. Design is to prevent accidents from happening. The 1572 code could be an adjustment or replacement of the brake pedal switch. On emissions air injection pump, could be something simple fuse, relay or vacuum hose leak. Pump is involved to repair. Good luck with the PPI.

Well here is the rear fuse box (with one missing idk what does it do) and the traction thing was correct.
how to adjust the break pedal switch (car brakes fine)
is it easy to reach and cheap part?
regarding emissions where is the relay and vacuum ? you mean the ones on top of the engine (easy access) or deeper inside?
anything else to change preventative

in the locations u will describe <3
great help already bro

I would get an OBDII reset tool and reset all the codes and then see if they come back. Sometimes they just need to be reset to be sure it's a real problem and not a fluke!

And then watch the speed bumps in the Business Gate District - It will bottom out!

Great stuff. how long does it take to come back if it is a serious issue?
we removed the codes in the morning and i turned on the car 2 times later that day.

Put 100KM on it, get it up to 100KM/hr and down oto 30KM/hr a few times. Start / Stop 3-4 times (key off at least twice) and then check it.
