1. 1

   Perform a hard power cycle by turning the machine's main power switch OFF for at least two minutes, then turn back on to see if the code transitions from Active to Stored

2. 2

   Inspect the wiring harness connectors at the Engine ECU for pushed pins, corrosion, or moisture intrusion that could cause an internal short circuit logic error

3. 3

   Verify that the ECU is receiving proper voltage and has clean grounds

4. 4

   Check for other active cascading codes (such as 5V reference shorts) that might be forcing the ECU into a protective watchdog state
