Driver/Vehicle Information Display: Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
With Manufacturer's Scan Tool
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
The control module will store a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if it detects a fault. The control module can store a maximum of 25 diagnostic trouble
codes (DTCs). The number of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) varies depending on the type of instrument. If a fault disappears for any reason after the
diagnostic trouble code (DTC) has been permanently stored in the control module, information about the fault remains in the control module for a while.
For each diagnostic trouble code (DTC) stored, a counter records the total number "fault-free" operating cycles since the diagnostic trouble code (DTC)
was stored. If the control module does not register the fault after 10 completed operating cycles, the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are erased
automatically. They are "self-erasing".
An operating cycle is defined as where the ignition has been switched off and then on again and the vehicle has then reached a speed in excess of 30
km/h. The ignition must have been on (or the car driven) for longer than 5 minutes.
Reading Off The Volvo On-board Diagnostic (OBD) System
Fault data and other information can be read off using the VADIS PC which is connected to the data link connector (DLC) under the center console
cover via VCT2000. The VADIS PC communicates with the control module via a standardized interface.
Volvo On-board Diagnostic (OBD) System
With the VADIS PC it is possible to:
-
read off and erase stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
-
activate components or functions according to certain predetermined patterns
-
continuously monitor the values and status of the input and output signals for the signals
-
read off the control module identification
-
program and read off the programmed values
-
reset the mileage for a new car
-
reset the service reminder lamp (SRL).
The following conditions must be met before the Volvo on-board diagnostic (OBD) system is activated:
-
the ignition must be on
-
the battery voltage must be normal.
