Here is the copier Main Control board with the SSD on the top right.
This is the SSD board, this board holds system firmware , theres no more dimms on this machine.
This SSD board was the problem, you will have to have a USB stick with the latest firmware after replacing this board.
When you replace this new SSD board and boot the copier up, it will go into the F010 code again. This is when you turn off copier, insert the USB with the latest firmware and reboot. You will now see the machine go into firmware update but you will only see four lines of information and it will say firmware "recover complete" turn off copier. Here is where you power off the copier but leave the USB stick in and reboot, it now does a complete firmware update like normal.
Turn copier off again & remove stick and reboot. Now you will see the copier get past the "welcome" screen, you will see program loading (you know it is fixed) but then goes into error C0180. I knew I was half way there and didnt want to call the hotline and deal with rookie techs going by the books so I called a friend who is a veteran Kyocera guru Hose1cook, he instructed me to do a simulation 04 "machine number" and execute that. I did and rebooted the copier and it is fixed.
You will lose all IP & address book, I couldn't back it up as the machine was down in error.
Anyways, thanks for the help guys, hope this may help someone somewhere.
Thank you to Hose1cook for taking my call and helping me out.
