How to fix Scania EAS fault code 768512?
- Check that the control unit has the latest software.
- If not, update the software.
- Restart the system as follows, with 24 V supply voltage:
- The vehicle should be stationary with the parking brake applied.
- Turn on the 15 voltage with the starter key and wait 5 seconds.
- Turn off the 15 voltage and wait another 5 seconds.
- Turn on the 15 voltage again and wait another 5 seconds.
- If the fault is still active, renew the control unit, including the electric motor.

Variant 2: Read access to data flash failed
Applies to: EAS2
Detection
Internal Data Flash error. The DTC will set during the following condition: 1.System state: NMWait, PreDrive, DriveDown, DriveUp, PostRun, Off, Flash, Error. 2.System voltage is above 6v. 3.System voltage is below 42v.
Possible cause
1. Incorrect DataFlash block configuration. 2. Non-initialization of DataFlash blocks. 3. Improper shut-down of the powerpack. 4. NVRAM storage of the powerpack is corrupted.
System reaction
Set the Yellow Lamp to "On". Set the signal EASState to ERROR. Set the EPS motor torque to 0 Nm. Electronic steering system is inactive. The software endstops are deactivated. DTC, KFC_ERROR_MODE_ACTIVE is set ACTIVE in the same Klemme-15 cycle. ActualSteeringMode signal stay in ASM mode. Steering gear operational mode is in Disable Steering gear degradation reason is in Internal Fault Note:ASM functionality deactivate
Symptoms
Not applicable
How to fix
- Step.1: If Updated/Newer SW is available: Flash SW.
- Step-2: Perform proper Clamp_15-Reset with stable PowerSupply as follows:
- Vehicle in Stand-Still (0kmph, Parking-Brake-Enganged)
- Clampe_15_ON + wait 5 seconds
- Clampe_15_OFF + wait 5 seconds
- Clampe_15_ON + wait 5 seconds
- If Error is still active (DTC-Status-TestFailed) remain with Step-3 Step-3: Replace the power pack if the SPN is still active.
