Fault-Tracing Information






Fault-tracing

Checking the wiring
The signal for the lighting for the Volvo On Call buttons is pulse width modulated. To enable measuring and checking if there is a problem on the lead, pulse-width modulation (lighting intensity) needs to be set to a specific value.
- To check whether the fault is due to an open circuit, or short-circuit to ground, the value 10% must be set.
- To check if the signal has a short-circuit to voltage, the value 0% must be set.
Click on VCT2000 to set the desired value on the signal.

Open-circuit or short-circuit to ground
- Check the voltage between terminal #C1:3 and #C1:6 to check the SOS button.
Check the voltage between terminal #C1:4 and #C1:6 to check the SOS On Call button.
- If the value is lower than 3 V, the cable has a short-circuit to ground.
- If the measured value is greater than 8 V, this means that the cable is disconnected and that the circuit is open.
- Check the wiring and connectors

short-circuit to voltage
- Check the voltage between terminal #C1:3 and #C1:6 to check the SOS button.
Check the voltage between terminal #C1:4 and #C1:6 to check the SOS On Call button.
- If the value is greater than 8 V, the cable has a short-circuit to voltage.
- Check the wiring and connectors
Remedy as necessary.
