Description:

This code indicates an EEPROM checksum failure, meaning the data is invalid. This could be due to memory corruption, incorrect programming, or faults within the EEPROM itself.

Reaction:

The control unit may not function correctly, leading to various operational issues and potential failure of critical systems. The operator might see a warning light or message on the dashboard.

Recommendations:

• Reprogram EEPROM:
  • Use manufacturer-specific diagnostic tools to reprogram the EEPROM with the correct data.
• Inspect Memory Integrity:
  • Use diagnostic tools to check for memory corruption or errors within the EEPROM.
  • Replace the EEPROM if persistent memory issues are detected.
• Verify Installation Procedures:
  • Ensure proper procedures are followed when installing or updating the control unit to prevent checksum errors.
• Check Power Supply and Connections:
  • Ensure the EEPROM and associated control unit are receiving a stable power supply and that all connections are secure and free from corrosion.

Note:

Proper handling and programming of control units are essential to prevent memory and software issues. Regular updates and checks can help maintain data integrity.
