Hardware failure error code

OK... I've ran the Hardware Test after experiencing odd kernel panics and inability to boot (with power light flashing at failure). I ran the test and it came back normal on the short test, but on the extended test I received errors. I ran the test twice and these are the errors I received:
First Test:
4SNS/1/40000000:TM3S
Second Test:
4SNS/1/40000000:TM2S
I've seen RAM failures on other machines before and they always have an MEM designation. Anyone know what the SNS designation means? I'm wondering if it may be an SATA issue as some of the problems I've experienced seem potentially SATA related.

Doug,
I found that "SNS" is a sensor problem (from another post, I think in the MBP forum...)
The MP has the following sensors:
"TA0P", "TCAG", "TCAH", "TCBG", "TCBH", "TC0C", "TC0D", "TC0P",
+ "TC1C", "TC1D", "TC2C", "TC2D", "TC3C", "TC3D", "THTG", "TH0P",
+ "TH1P", "TH2P", "TH3P", "TMAP", "TMAS", "TMBS", "TM0P", "TM0S",
+ "TM1P", "TM1S", "TM2P", "TM2S", "TM3S", "TM8P", "TM8S", "TM9P",
+ "TM9S", "TN0H", "TS0C", NULL
I haven't found out what each does, though.
Hope this can lead you in the right direction.

    what are the meanings of Apple Hardware Test error codes 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1300 and 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1308?

    Thanks - Even though I'm years out of warranty I got chat help from Apple (I said they should help me since the codes aren't published.)  We covered three different questions, and although I didn't get a specific decoding of the error code, I got confirmation of what other comments here imply - it might have helped that I indicated I'd already been here - and useful links to how to do back ups, including to CD(s). (I don't have a lot of data on this computer yet)
    Now I need to figure out how to decide how hot-to-the-touch is "too hot" for the metal frame at the top of the iMac to decide whether I'm getting adequate fan performance or insufficient.  While chatting I initially reported it was cool at the bottom and warm at the top.  Apple hadn't asked, but their response prompted me to feel it again, and I'd say the top was hot, not warm - I updated but Apple didn't comment further except to conclude after addressing the other questions that I should take it in for further assessment - don't really want to bother with that.

  • HT201257 Does anybody know what hardware test error code this is 4SNS/1/40000001: TCOH -1.704

    Trying to track down fast running fan that will not reset and this error came up.

    only apple techncians have access to what those codes mean.  It is sensor related, but as it is a hardware problem, you need to bring it into an Apple store or AASP to have it correctly diagnosed and fixed.

  • Imac G5 v. 10.3.6 with multiple problems startup failure + error code +

    I have tired numerous suggestions without writing, but no luck.  Here's the deal: I may have erased important files in the start up volume.  Don't know exactly.  Upon start up I get to the white screen with the gray apple icon and the time indicator circle.  It stays in on this screen until the fan starts to speed up and I am forced to manually shut down. I ran a short test of the hardware and everything passed.  Ran an extended test and there was an error code 2STF/8/3:S-ATA Bus 0 - Master reported in the mass storage.  Went to the utilities of the install disk and noticed there are two applications under volumes Mac OS x and OS 9 (computer was purchased from ebay used with Final Cut Pro already included). Also there is a "dev" harddrive seen with the "System" harddrive????  The system files/folder seem to be normal except that the Library is empty.  A Library does exist under the "root" folder followed by perferences.  I don't know if it matters but when we bought this computer we put our previous system onto it.  Recently I tired to reinstall by saving the archives and an error was reported and I was asked to try to reinstall again.  Again I returned to the disk utilities and ran the first aid on the System and it reported that the the reserved fields in the catalog record have incorrect data, followed by invalid sibling lind (red font) and Rebuiling Catalog B-tree. The volume system reported it could not be repaired (-9972). Any advice at this point would be appreciated. My husband is about to kill me.  We are living in Costa Rica and the nearest applestore is 3 hours away. We just got this computer back from them. It took 3 months to replace the powersupply.

    Hi Dardaner, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    You have problems with the Hard Drive, how bad I'm not certain.
    Do you need the Data that is on that Drive?
    If so, unfortunately DU can't fix all that much, your best bet is DiskWarrior, you need the CD though.
    http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/
    If you can afford to start over and lose all that data, then, perhaps...
    "Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the Erase tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume, then chose MacOS Extended Journalled.
    6. Click Erase & look for Options. choose Zero 1 pass."
    You may be able to reinstall then, but of course nothing you had before will be there.

  • What do Apple Hardware Test Error Codes indicate?

    I recently installed new 1GB memory modules in both slots. When running the Apple Hardware Test, I got the following error code:
    post/0/2048 S0DIMM0/J20STANDARD
    Does anybody knows what this means? Up in the Test Results Box, it said Memory passed.
    Do I have a problem or not?

    I've had little luck finding a compilation of those AHT codes and their meaning. In your case, "post" is probably "power-on self test," the routine that all Macs run at startup to check for problems.
    2048 is the total RAM qty in MB.
    J20STANDARD is the logical name of one of the RAM slots.
    Run System Profiler and see what it shows for when you select "Memory" from the left-hand pane. On my 1Ghz 17" PowerBook, Profiler shows one slot as J20STANDARD and the other as J23REVERSED and it runs fine. Profiler will tell you if the modules are matched for speed and CAS latency.

  • Upgrade failure, then restore failure, error code is 1604

    IOS 5.01 upgrade to IOS 5.1 failure and can't restart, then restore failure and the error code is 1604

    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • Cloud Update Failure: Error Code A12E1

    I tried to update the Cloud app. I get this error.
    "We've encountered the following issues:
    Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the installation process (Error Code: A12E1). For troubleshooting tips, please visit our support page."
    So here I am. I have no idea what to do.
    Hardware Specs:
    Mac 10.8.4
    2.66GHz Intel Core i7
    8GB 1067MHz DDR3
    No external drives

    I ran into this issue recently myself when I was applying the lastest updates to CC:
    Error Code: A12E1)
    I thought the fix recommended - running the cleaner and/or reinstalling the entire Suite, etc - was a little bit extreme. I was able to apply the update in a round about manner. I didn't have time to do a complete reinstall just to fix a couple of photos.
    Issue: When applying the update to Creative Cloud you get the error about 3/4 of the way through the upgrade:
    "We've encountered the following issues:
    Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the installation process (Error Code: A12E1). For troubleshooting tips, please visit our support page."
    Tried again after a reboot. Same error.
    HERE IS MY FIX:
    I am Running Lion, and this is what worked for me:
    Resolution:
    1. Restarted the Mac, telling it NOT to open the programs on reboot
    2. Opened Photoshop
    3. Went to Help and selected updates...
    4. Launched the update through Photoshop. It ran through and updated the applications.
    After I was done, I noted the CC update indicator next to the clock went away. I also noted that when I launched Photoshop from Lightroom I didn't get the error saying my Adobe Raw was out of date which is what prompted the update in the beginning.
    I should note that when I did this I got an error saying some library was open so I canceled the upgrader and closed out of the program I forgot to close, so make sure this is a clean restart.

  • Itunes installation failure, error code 80070246

    I was attempting to upgrade to the latest I tunes version, unfortunately the installation stops during the publishing product information stage. I am using Windows Vista, home edition 32 bit.
    While searching the help topics I have tried uninstalling itunes, quicktime, apple software update, apple mobile device support, bonjour and would have uninstalled apple application support if it showed up.
    After rebooting and attempting to reinstall (with another failure) I tried running Microsoft fix-it basic and advanced because I came across this fix in another article for this error code. Now not only can I not install Itunes, no updates show up in the history for Windows Update and when I run Windows Update it also fails with another error code 80080005.
    After spending 2 days working on this I am worse off than I was when I started, does anyone have any suggestions for what I should do next?

    A quick search of the error code shows a VBScript error. Perhaps this could help:

  • Is this major?! Hardware test error code 4M0T/4/40000002:HDD-0

    I ran a thorough hardware test on my 2010 iMac11,3 yesterday and came up with this error code. I then used disk utility to try to repair the disk and ran another thorough hardware test and the same code appeared. Does anyone know what this error code means? and whether I should get it fixed ASAP?
    I'm asking since this is my work computer and I really need to have it around and can't risk having repairs take a week or so to get this error fixed. If this is major I'll probably move all my work files onto my MBP n try to work on them there but that would be my last resort.
    Any help would be much appreciated!! Thanks!

    Watch the temp of the HD; I don't know what the max should be, but be careful not to damage it by letting it get too hot.

  • C260 Hardware Scan error code "WPE001001-HK7X6I" PCI EXPRESS-SYSTEM

    thanks

    Hi daus_95gen welcome to the forum, I don`t know what the error code means, Only lenovo will know that, What i do know is that it points to your graphics hardware, But don`t panic yet lol.
    My suggestion is to go to the lenovo support site, Enter your laptop series name (in your case the G400) in the search engine & see if there are any driver updates for your pc, If there are download & install them.
    Once the drivers are installed run another hardware test, If all goes well you should not see another error code.
    Let us know how things work out.

  • MBA hardware test error code: 4MEM/1/40000000:0x79flae98. Can anybody tell me what this means and how to fix the problem if ever possible? Thanks!

    As mentioned in the subject line: my Mid 2009 MBA freezes frequently. The hardware test provides the error code.
    It sounds like a failed RAM but it still works when booted.
    Can anybody tell me what was wrong with this MBA and what else can I do to save it?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's a RAM issue. If you want, you can still use your Mac until it gets damaged, but that message tells something bad with your RAM, and what it's worse, the RAM in the MacBook Air is soldered onto the logic board, so if you take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired, the whole logic board will have to be replaced, making this repair so expensive

  • What does Apple Hardware Test error code 4MEM/1/40000000:OX3bb6b190 mean?

    Mozilla kept crashing so I did the Apple Hardware Test and got error code 4MEM/1/40000000:OX3bb6b190. I reinstalled MacOs 10.4.4 (after saving the important stuff to disk of course) and it took about 10 tries to get the 2 disks installed. After the installation, I tried to update to 10.4.5, and when I restarted, the screen was blank. The only disk the computer will start with now is the No. 1 installation disk. What can I do?

    Hi
    A MEM error code generally indicates a faulty RAM Module. In my experience most RAM manufacturers offer at least a 5 year warranty of their RAM products. Some warranties are for 10 years. Sometimes reseating (taking it out and putting it back in again - properly) the Module will 'cure' the problem. Run AHT afterwards if you try this option first.
    If you can remove the offending module and still have enough RAM to be able to do what you need to do then do so.
    If not take it to your nearest Apple Repair Specialist who should fix it for you or replace the faulty module yourself and deal with the RAM manufacturer directly.
    Judging by the footer to your post you don't seem to have had much luck with this model have you?
