Defect Code 01



Defect Code 01:

*D* Defect code memory: Data link to EKM was temporarily interrupted.

Explanation: This defect code is stored when the instrument cluster data link to the EKM (serial interface to EKM) was temporarily interrupted or is defective.

Note: The instrument cluster cannot differentiate if the defect is permanent or whether it is only intermittent.

Troubleshooting:

- The defect code can be cleared if no apparent fault can be found in the instrument cluster.

- If a fault is found, e.g. all indicators defective, check data link from instrument duster Pin 13 to EKM connector green Pin 17 for a break or short to plus/ground.
