check engine codes after hitting deer

[Hookitnbookit]

What's goin on guys,

I have a 2021 ram 1500 big horn w the 5.7L hemi (non e torque)

On 1/16/25 at 7am I hit a deer 2 minutes from my house, no cosmetic damage, parked my truck and went to bed. 7pm rolled around and I left for work, 5 minutes from my house I hear the dreaded *ding* and see my check engine light. My truck is throwing 2 codes the first is P1524 "oil pressure out of range - camshaft advance/retard disabled" and the second is B16E7-15 "license plate lamp control - circuit short to battery or open". My scan tool tells me that P1524 most likely fix is a oil change and oil filter change (I'm 1k miles away from an oil change which is done every 5k miles, oil life says 60%).

My question is mainly how do I fix the B16E7-15 code, I cant really find any useful info about that code. All I know is both my tag lights are out, all my other lights work perfectly fine.
As for the P1524 I am changing the oil and filter later today to see if that resolves my issue but I am slightly concerned my oil pump is going out as at normal operating temp while idling my oil pressure is 25-26 PSI and at 80mph it is sitting at 33-34 PSI most I've seen it go to is 38 PSI. If anyone has any insight on how to fix both issues I would appreciate it

Time to roll underneath and look for damage to a wiring harness.

My sister ran over something once and whatever it was flipped up under the engine and severed the crank position sensor wires. It doesn't take much.

I don't think the deer went under the truck because it was running from right to left and I hit the rear end of the deer under my driver headlight so majority of the deer didn't get hit. I did notice my fuel flap was popped open when I left for work that night, but I will definitely slide under there and chase the harness to make sure nothing was torn up.
