We consider multidimensional codes capable of correcting a burst error of weight at most $2$. When two positions are in error, the burst limits their relative position. We study three such limitations: the $L_\infty$ distance between the positions is bounded, the $L_1$ distance between the positions is bounded, or the two positions are on an axis-parallel line with bounded distance between them. In all cases we provide explicit code constructions, and compare their excess redundancy to a lower bound we prove.
