Your code 43 is for the Electronic Spark Control (ESC) and the coe 46 is for the Vehicle Anti-Theft System (VATS).

Youll need to run some tests on your detonation sensor(s). Might be 1 or even two on a V6, not sure. Check the grounds for them, and if they test good, check for proper operation of the ESC module. Someone should be able to chime in and tell you the easiest way to check it. Plus, the code could be from a case of bad gas.
