E1CF Error Showing Up

StradaRedlands · 12-29-2024, 12:11 AM

I just did a routine scan with Protools and an E1CF come showed up. I googled and very little info on it. Just a little something about MOST errors when updating combox. 100% all stock CIC on an '09. No radio or display errors noticed, but 16 instances are logged. Clear the code and ignore, or should I be doing anything else?

Hi

That is M-ASK or CCC related error.

Do you have retrofitted CIC & Combox?

If yes then this error code is because your car ilevel is expecting a M-ASK or CCC unit but there is CIC instead.

Everything will function properly and i have chosen to ignore this error (i have same error 100% of time) because you spend money upgrading modules and the only gain will be this error will not be shown.

From what i know this can only be fixed if you update couple modules inside the car to LCI version.
FRM2 to FRM3

You have 100% stock system - well i have no clue then. But i got this error after CIC & Combox retrofit and now you have some idea why it might come - modules in the car not happy with eachother.

Thanks for the reply Captain Buumer
Yes, 100% stock '09 LCI CIC. It's running Bluetooth dongle to connect to phones... that's the only thing unexpected on it.

And everything seems to work, so it's not a problem ignoring it, just wondering what it would be...
