DTC P0602: Engine Control Module (ECM)/Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Programming Error (L4): General Description

The engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module (PCM) is equipped with an update program to update its control program. The programs in the CPU of the ECM/PCM are classified as an ECM/PCM program (update-capable program) and a program for the update function (non-updateable program). The program update only updates the ECM/PCM program.

When the ECM/PCM power is turned off during an update, the power for the update function is lost, and the update process stops. When the program update is stopped before it is completed, the ECM/PCM stores a DTC that indicates the update is not finished.
