Have a look here : http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1197277610 for your codes, although I'm not sure what Service Light Voltage High / Low means  :-/

It's never a good idea to run the fuel supply to the minimum because you run the risk of dredging all the muck from the bottom of the tank and blocking the fuel filter, injectors etc. ;)

Lol...thats a low fuel issue!

As I said when you popped round, you need to get the ecu bulb fitted in the instrument panel to get rid of that fault code  :y

Sounds as though a trip to the petrol station is called for.
