Checking the wiring
- Ignition off
- Check control module connector C and the potentiometer connector. Check for an intermittent short-circuit to ground. See Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. See Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C5 and ground.
Check for an intermittent short-circuit to ground. See Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C6 and ground.
Take the same reading as above.
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C7 and ground.
Take the same reading as above.
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C5 and potentiometer connector 1.
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C6 and potentiometer connector 2.
Check for an intermittent open-circuit. See Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults
Connect an ohmmeter between control module connector C7 and potentiometer connector 3.
Take the same reading as above.
If no faults are found, try a new potentiometer.
Remedy as necessary.

Continue - Calibrating the convertible system
-------------------------------------------------
Calibrating the convertible system
It is important that the potentiometer values are calibrated and programmed into the control module if the potentiometer has been replaced.
Carry out programming and calibration in Volvo Scan Tool (ST).
Select Continue when the fault has been remedied.

Fault-tracing information
If the fault is intermittent, do not verify fault-tracing if the fault does not recur.
It is possible to view the information again, or leave fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
