If those are your only codes, you have not identified any problem yet. The
codes indicate that you did not [538]goose the engine properly, [536]step on
the brake and [521] turn the steering wheel back and forth during the test.
I have the same tester as you but I find it easier to just jump the
connections per instructions on shotimes.com and, although the book is very
good, you can decode the codes here:
