P0604

2GR-FSE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0604: Internal Control Module Random Access Memory (RAM) Error
P0604 - Internal Control Module Random Access Memory (RAM) Error

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM continuously monitors its internal memory status. This self-check ensures that the ECM is functioning properly. It is diagnosed by internal "mirroring" of the main CPU and sub CPU to detect the Random Access Memory (RAM) errors. If outputs from these CPUs are different and deviate from the standards, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and set the DTC immediately.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN





1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

3. Clear DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).

4. Turn the Techstream off.

5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for 30 seconds.

6. Disconnect the Techstream.

7. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and wait for 1 minute.

8. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

9. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

10. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

11. Wait 16 seconds or more [A].

12. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

13. Read the DTCs [B].

HINT
- If a DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If a DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

14. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.

15. Input the DTC: P0604.

16. Check the DTC judgment result.





HINT
- If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
- If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

17. If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE or UNKNOWN and no DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

HINT
- If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(e) Turn the Techstream off.

(f) Turn the engine switch off.

(g) Disconnect the Techstream.

(h) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and wait for 1 minute.

(i) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

(j) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(k) Turn the engine switch on (IG) and wait for 16 seconds or more.

(l) Turn the Techstream on.

(m) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

(n) Read the DTCs.

Result:





B -- REPLACE ECM

A -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
