A malfunction is detected by using a checksum technique for verifying data. The digital data is composed of zeros and ones. A checksum is the total of all ones in a string of data. By comparing the checksum value with a stored value, a malfunction can be detected.
The PCM monitors RAM areas and communication connections between microcontroller and output drivers and sets DTC P0606 if failure is detected.
