System overview

Control module




There is a parking assistance system to assist parking. The parking assistance module (PAM) manages components in the system and communication with other control modules.
The control module for XC60/S60 (11-) is located by the right wheel housing rear and for V60/V70/XC70/S80 under the cargo compartment floor by the right wheel housing.
The parking assistance module (PAM) communicates with directly connected components and with other control modules via the controller area network (CAN).
The control module monitors input and output signals through integrated diagnostics. A diagnostic trouble code is generated when the control module detects a fault. Any diagnostic trouble codes are stored in the control module memory. The information can be read off.
The parking assistance system is available in two versions: Either with only parking sensors rear or with parking sensors both front and rear.

Signals
The table below summarizes the input signals to and output signals from the parking assistance module (PAM). The signal types are divided into directly connected signals and CAN communication. The illustration below displays the same information with the Volvo component designations.
