DTC C1608: EEPROM Error

DTC C1608: EEPROM Error

CAUTION: If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to Controller Area Network (CAN), Trouble code diagnosis).

DTC SET CONDITION
KOS incorporates EEPROM (nonvolatile memory), and that EEPROM stores the TPMS, KOS and immobilizer information.When the data in EEPROM is failed, this code is set.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
The most likely causes for this DTC to set are:
- Damaged wiring harness and connector
- Malfunction of KOS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:
- MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
- MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable
- MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics

Use scan tool to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES: Go to Step 2.

NO: Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to Controller Area Network (CAN) -CAN Bus Diagnostics table). On completion,go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Diagnostic trouble code check

1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the DTC C1608 set?

YES: Replace the KOS-ECU and register the ID codes. Then go to Step 3. (Refer to ID Codes Registration Procedure).

NO: The procedure is complete.

STEP 3. Diagnostic trouble code check

1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the DTC C1608 set?

YES: Start over at Step 1.

NO: The procedure is complete.
