Had codes read on numerous occasions but at 80.00 a pop better off sorting with a GAP tool or from people with prior experience with similar issues
My mate just traded his Prado after finding out from his mechanic that the engine mount on the passenger side had punched through the chassis rail and was just flapping about doing its own thing. Shiny new Pajero in his driveway now - guessing the dealer will either sell the Prado on as is it do a dodgy roady on it to flog it to some poor sap. When I googled this issue it turns out it’s wasn’t an uncommon problem. Almost no off road work and well maintained.

Very few issues electronically. My work Prado and Hilux had more issues.
Look at the ambient light sensor - a code read wouldn’t hurt either.
Another Disco 3 09 owner from the school car park chatting asked me why his radio not working. Starts then jumps into Phone mode. Been like that for ages. Has owned it since near new.
Asked if ever had a leak and oh yes the original windscreen pin hole leaked through the centre light. Was replaced but the A-Pillar outside cover then leaked worse via a broken fitting into the passenger footwell.
I said that might be the source of your trouble as are so many electrical gremlins when you don’t know full history. Cars get sold onto next person.
Suspect a bit of corrosion behind the side passenger footwell panels there.
