20090088923 | VEHICULAR CONTROL APPARATUS AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM - Whether an anomaly occurs in a data-rewritable second nonvolatile memory is determined by comparison between (i) a diagnosis code stored in the second nonvolatile memory and (ii) data contents stored as a diagnosis table in a first nonvolatile memory.
