Headlamp Control Module: Description and Operation
Diagnostic Functions

Diagnostic functions

General

The control module has a built-in diagnostic system, Volvo Diagnostic, which continuously monitors internal functions as well as input and output
signals.

Diagnostic trouble codes

A diagnostic trouble code is stored if the control module detects a fault. A fault which is detected in the most recent operating cycle is defined as
permanent. Other faults are defined as intermittent. An operating cycle involves ignition on, the vehicle speed exceeding 20 km/h and the ignition being
switched off.

Reading and erasing diagnostic trouble codes

Stored diagnostic trouble codes can be read off and erased using this function.
Diagnostic trouble codes can only be erased once all the diagnostic trouble codes have been read off at least once.

Reading off input and output signals

This function can be used to continuously read off the status of the control module's input and output signals.
For more information about parameters, see Vehicle communication information in Specifications, other.

Activating components

This function can be used to activate components to check that they are working.
For more information on activations, see Vehicle communication information under Specifications, other.

Reading off the control module identification

The diagnostic tool identifies control modules by reading off a number of codes from the control module memory.
The codes contain the following information about the control module:

-

hardware P/N (control module without software)

-

hardware serial number (control module without software)

-

software P/N

-

diagnostic software P/N (part of the software).
