Volvo Link ECU

The Volvo Link System provides satellite communications between a driver and fleet. It
includes the Volvo Link ECU, GPS antenna, cable, and wiring harnesses. Some vehi-
cles also include a dash switch. This system allows communications between Volvo’s
Web based (fleet) software and the vehicle.

This information includes design and troubleshooting of the vehicle portion of the sys-
tem. For repair procedures, see service procedures in group 397. For fleet software
troubleshooting, see the software help file.
