What are the possible causes of the code SC819? Any help appreciated, thank you.

SC-819:
Kernel mismatch error
Software bug
Software application error

You could try reloading firmware, or it may also be the HDD.

Start with the HDD

Try reformating first, but I would replace the three door switches if the copier has alot of copies.

Try running it without the HDD. As a matter of fact, remove print/scan, fax, expanded memory, and all controller options as well.
If the machine comes to ready, you're controller board is likely ok. Start adding components back on one at a time.
Most Sc819's I've seen on that engine has been the HDD.

Be careful with that - It's a good troubleshooting tip for most machines, but some of the new Ricoh's will not boot at all without a HDD And remember even on the old machines you can't duplex or stable without the HDD

The 1045 will run w/o the HDD. You will lose duplex and sort functions, but, I only mention removing the drive as a temporary troubleshooting measure.
