If the display on a MLR shows only *WRONG CHECKSUM WAIT PROGRAM* then the ROM is corrupted. It is possible to achieve this by disconnecting data cable when altering the internal software. The 'nuclear' software can often be used to recover a 'dead' MLR - if this doesn't work then the MLR is truly dead.
