A method, system, and/or computer program product corrects a data error that has been caused by a break in a conductor link in a memory. A memory controller detects a line malfunction in a data bit transmission line between a first bit node and a second bit node in a memory, and then identifies a constant voltage state at the second bit node that is caused by the line malfunction. In response to determining that the constant voltage state is non-representative of the bit value intended to be transmitted from the first bit node to the second bit node, an inversion logic inverts bit values for all bits in an original bit array to create an inverted bit array, which is stored in the array of memory cells for future retrieval and re-inversion, in order to reconstruct the original bit array.
