Will it clear right away or after a few min? Induce a fault (unplug a sensor), verify fault stored, reconnect, turn off for less than 1 min, see if code is still present. If it is, turn off for 10 min and see if present. If gone after 10, it sounds like a power issue (to the computer). If gone prior to 1 min,, I'd think the computer itself (still may be some freaky shorted wire issue though).

also make sure all the wire connections are tight, have seen a loose ground wire cause this check the grounds next to the fuse box and on both sides of the engine as well as the main ground wire.
