DTC C1608: EEPROM Error
 
 
cautionIf 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 GROUP 54C, 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.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics table ). On completion, go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. Diagnostic trouble code check
(1) Turn the power supply mode of the engine switch to OFF.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the power supply mode of the engine switch to OFF.
Is the DTC C1608 set?
Replace the KOS-ECU and register the ID codes (Refer to ). Then go to Step 3.
The procedure is complete.
 
STEP 3. Diagnostic trouble code check
(1) Turn the power supply mode of the engine switch to OFF.
(2) Turn the power supply mode of the engine switch to ON.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the power supply mode of the engine switch to OFF.
Is the DTC C1608 set?
Start over at Step 1.
The procedure is complete.
