How to find out what Flash I have? CEL P0610
 
hey guys. i have a check engine light on P0610. "Control Module (ECM) Vehicle Options Error"

the only problem i have noticed besides the check engine light on is that when it is cold outside (below 70 degrees) the first time i start the car, the cruise control wont turn on and i cant use the cruise control. but after the car warms up and i turn the engine off and back on, the cruise control works fine.

i am trying to find out which flash i have? is there a way to tell which flash i have?

Besides replacing the expensive PCM or ECM, is there a way to fix this?

Also, i read that if the neutral switch isnt plugged in all the way, it can cause the P0610 CEL. which connectors should i check to make sure they are plugged in all the way and where are they located?

also is there a way to reset the ECM? i saw this and thought it might reset it...


"That won't clear the KAM and can do some other funky things if it isn't complete. It will also erase your radio presets and clock settings.
There are two reset procedures, one for the NVRAM and the other for the KAM. Neither will erase your radio presets and such like the method SpooledUp7 posted:

1) With the key in the off position, press and hold the odometer reset button and turn the key to on;
Continue to hold the odo button until the odometer reads "TEST" and then release.
2) Turn the key to off and repeat step one.

This will reset the entire PCM except the KAM which contains the sensor profiles amongst other things. You can reset it with the familiar procedure:

1) Turn the key to on
2) Depress the brake pedal rapidly 20 times in a row until the oil pressure gauge sweeps to halfway and back again."

the CEL has been on for a few months. i had the engine replaced under warranty after the CEL came on. I have the transmission replaced a year or so before the CEL came on. also, the radio quit working around the same time as the Cel came on. not sure if the radio quit working before or after the CEL P0610 came on. the radio head unit seems to work, but the speakers pop and screech. not sure what the problem is with the radio. i'm more concerned with the P0610.
