ABSTRACT:
A memory system for a vehicle includes a first memory that is non-volatile, that is rewritable, and that stores a control program and identification data. A second memory is non-volatile. A control module transfers the identification data to the second memory, erases the first memory, rewrites the control program to the first memory, and transfers the identification data from the second memory to the first memory after erasing the first memory. The identification data may include data such as a software version identifier, a programming date, and/or a part number.
