Reading Off and Programming Combined Instrument Panel

Using this function of the Volvo Scan Tool programmed data can be read off and data can be programmed into the control module. This allows the combined instrument panel to be programmed for different markets and engine types.

NOTE:
- After programming the control module the ignition must be switched off and on again before the programmed values can be read off.
- Before replacing the connection plate or combined instrument panel all data must be read off the control module. After replacement the new data must be programmed into the new control module.

If programming is not carried out the service reminder indicator (SRI) will flash while the car is being driven. If the total mileage cannot be read off the control module, the meter reading on the instrument panel can be read off in order to reprogram the combined instrument panel.

All the following parameters can be read off. Some can also be programmed.
- PIN
The car's unique PIN (Personal Identification Number) can be programmed once when replacing the connection plate. The PIN is obtained from Volvo's central car register. This parameter cannot be read off.

- P/N
Indicates combined instrument panel P/N. The P/N can only be programmed once. Only program it when replacing the connection plate.

- Connection plate
Indicates whether the combined instrument panel connection plate has been replaced or not. This parameter is read-only.

- Engine speed (RPM)
Indicates maximum engine speed (RPM) on the tachometer scale.

- Market code
Coding for different markets. The letters indicate the market and digits indicate the speedometer scale (in km or miles depending on the market).

CAUTION: When the market code is programmed for the first time the speedometer scale is entered as km or miles. The scale CANNOT be changed. Take care to find out the correct market code.

- Manipulation of Speedometer:
Indicates in hours how long the vehicle speed signal to the combined instrument panel has been disabled. This parameter is read-only.

- Total mileage
Indicates total mileage in km or miles.

NOTE: This parameter can only be programmed ONCE.

In addition, programming must be carried out before the control module's registered mileage passes 100 km (62 miles).

The control module updates the mileage every 16 km/10 miles. The programmed mileage is rounded down to the nearest divisible value.

The odometer display shows the programmed mileage.

- Mileage at service.
Indicates the mileage at the last service in km or miles. This parameter is read-only.

- Mileage between services
Indicates predetermined service interval in km or miles.

NOTE: Take care to find out the correct service interval.

- Time since service

Indicates time in months since last service. This parameter is read-only.

NOTE: Take care to find out the correct service interval.

- Time between services
Indicates predetermined service interval in months.

- Engine hours since service
Indicates engine operating time in hours since last service. This parameter is read-only.

- Engine hours between services Indicates predetermined service interval in engine hours.

NOTE: Take care to find out the correct service interval.

- Speed warning
The speed warning is only available for the Saudi Arabian market.
A warning signal sounds it vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h (75 mph).
The parameter is programmed when the Saudi Arabia market code is selected.
When the speed warning is not activated, OFF is displayed.

- Programming
Indicates if the total mileage is programmed or not. This parameter is read-only.

- Tire size
Indicates tire size in order to calibrate the speedometer. The control module uses wheel circumference and speed to calculate the correct speed reading.

NOTE: The tire size must be programmed when changing from small to large circumference tires. Programming should not be carried out if the car has winter tires.

- Fuel level calibration (offset)
The low fuel level warning lamp should light when there approximately 8 liters (2.1 US gal) of fuel left in the fuel tank. If the customer reports that this lamp is lighting at some other fuel level, the level can be calibrated using this function. Attenuated fuel level and the trip computer function "flange to empty fuel tank' are affected by calibration.
