The DSN schedule for Voyager 1 next week shows commands to be sent on Tuesday to relocate some FDS code around "VIM5". Presumably, VIM5 is a memory module.

Additional uploads will take place on Thursday.

So, there is still work that lies ahead to rearrange the code around the failed memory chip. And we suppose, it has to be done incrementally and meticulously so as to not accidentally brick the FDS computer.
