Inability of maintenance and diagnostics 2300 (amp detect optical calibrations) to recognize error handling and thermal hold errors during the calibration process, potentially leading to a misconfiguration of the calibration. 3. Under specific conditions during the adu manufacturing process, an incorrect calibration may potentially have been configured. Recall start date: December 13, 2022 Published 2022-12-23.
