COMMENTS
The modularity pattern series is the expansion of the (corrected) Nr. 54 modular cusp form of weight 2 and level N=48 given in the table 1 of the Martin reference, i.e., (eta(4*z) * eta(12*z)^4 / (eta(2*z) * eta(6*z) * eta(8*z) * eta(24*z)) in powers of q = exp(2*Pi*i*z), with Im(z) > 0, where i is the imaginary unit. Here eta(z) = q^{1/24}*Product_{n>=1} (1-q^n) is the Dedekind eta function. See A271231 for this expansion. Note that also for the possibly bad prime 2 and the bad prime 3 (the discriminant of this elliptic curve is -3) this expansion gives the correct p-defect.
The identical p-defects occur for the elliptic curve y^2 = x^3 + x^2 - 4*x - 4 taken modulo prime(n). See the Martin and Ono reference, p. 3173, row Conductor 48, and A271231 (checked up to prime(100) = 541). - Wolfdieter Lang, Apr 21 2016

FORMULA
a(n) = prime(n) - A271229(n), n >= 1, where A271229(n) is the number of solutions of the congruence y^2 == x^3 + x^2 + x (mod prime(n)).
a(n) = A271231(prime(n)), n >=1.
EXAMPLE
See the example section of A271229.
n = 3, prime(3) = 5, A271229(5) = 7, a(3) = 5 - 7 = -2.
