Hey guys, I searched around in the Service Manual but didn't really come up with anything definite.

well that is suggesting replacing the ecm in some cases.

anybody have anymore input into this? should it go to the dealer stock? i would like to see what cobb has to say about this.

i am not overreacting but is this the beginning of the end with bricking our ecu's? or is it just a code that needs to be defeated?

Take the AP off the ECU and see what happens.

If it does not comeback, call COBB and tell them the problem. If it does come back, take it to the dealer.

i confirmed this morning that i must only get it right after flashing. once you reset it, it doesn't come back.

Hey y'all,

We're looking into why this code is not being cleared after flashing in the latest firmware. We updated how the ECU is reset/cleared and this code may have slipped through.

During an ECU flash, communication with other modules is halted. The result is several CAN comms errors from the other modules on the bus.

There is no risk, nor anything wrong with the ECUs. For now, clear the code and have fun!

Thanks,
