Those faults could have been stored faults from years ago and nothing to do with why it would not start. Most cars have stored faults when connected to the diagnostic equipment. The first thing to do is usually clear faults and try to start it and see what fault comes back.
Dust outside the car causing a fault with a relay inside the car behind the dashboard, come on that must sound iffy to you.
Yes it was covered in dust but I suspect you would have had the same fault if it had not been dusty.
Car develop faults that just the way it is. How long is it since you put petrol in your car?
