Software downloading

Design and Function

Applies to: 2004–2012

It is possible to download new software into MK60 brake control modules (BCM) (applies to model year 2004 only). From model year 2005, new software can only be downloaded into the MK60 brake control modules (BCM) with TRACS AWD and DSTC.

When ordering software, the hardware and the software in the car is compared to the information in the Volvo central database. If the comparison is OK the software is downloaded to the control module.

If the comparison between the car and Volvo central database is not OK, the database is updated with the car configuration. When this is complete the software is downloaded.
