Andrew,

I don't see reference to an E00 error in the KAT1 manual.
But your problem is most likely associated with the KAT1 firmware IC.

It may be that some oxidation had built up on the pins of the IC and 
socket that would not have developed if there was current flowing 
through the contacts.

Try removing and replacing the firmware IC to see if that clears the 
problem.
