ECM monitors errors through checksum. Every information consists of the combination of 0 and 1, checksum means summing up all values in a row. Thus, errors are recognized comparing checksum value and the memory value at ECM.
Checking ECM under detecting condition, if internal error is detected, ECM sets P0606. And MIL(Malfunction Indication Lamp) turns on.
