Fault counter
When a fault first occurs, a fault entry is made in the fault memory and the counter is simultaneously set to 50.
If a fault is present, the counter is incremented by 1 for each "ignition on". The maximum count is 255.
The counter is decremented if the fault is no longer present. The fault memory is automatically erased when the counter
reaches 0.
If the error occurs again when the counter is between 1 and 49, the counter is reset to 50.
