The control module detected improper operation of the Engine control module (ECM). This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
ECM
The control module detected a fault associated with the MIL Request Signal Active circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
The stored code identifies a fault of the ECU internal fault. Documented for the Bosch MED 17.4.x engine ECU (EP6 THP family) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models. PSA documentation does not characterise the failure mode further.
The stored code identifies a fault of the ECU internal fault. Documented for the Bosch MEV17.4 engine ECU (EP6 1.6 VTi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models. PSA documentation does not characterise the failure mode further.
The control module detected the fault condition "Safety" for the Incorrect ESP request. Documented for the Magneti Marelli MM6KP engine ECU (EW7A/EW10A) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected the fault condition "internal fault" for the Engine ECU. Documented for the Siemens SID 803 injection ECU (DW10BTED4 2.0 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected a fault associated with the Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) - request signal active circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
Trouble code(s) stored in other system(s)
The control module registered the fault condition described as "MIL Request Signal Active (Check TCM for errors too!)". This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volkswagen. Volkswagen Group tools also report it as fault code 18032. Documented across Volkswagen Group applications (Audi, SEAT and Škoda included).

Diagnostic Trouble Code (8 interpretations). The control module detected improper operation of the Engine control module (ECM). This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
P1624 is a manufacturer-specific code. In this database it is documented for: Land Rover, MINI, PSA, VAG. The same number can mean something different on other brands.
If the fault logic lives in the ECU calibration, yes: our DTC Removal file service disables the specific fault entry and, where the ECU needs it, corrects the checksum too. Not sure whether your case qualifies? Request a free assessment and our engineers will check your ECU file.
