Check all indicators on the instrument cluster. Turn the
ignition on. Wait until the instrument cluster has gone
through the start-up cycle. Press the MODE button until
the diagnostic window shows DIAGNOSTICS MENU.
Press the down button twice and the SET button once.
The diagnostic window reads BULB TEST?. Press SET
and the internal check program lights up all indicators. If
any bulb is not functioning, note it on the checklist.
Press the down and SET buttons once and the check
program tests the buzzer functions. Three different dura-
tions of the tone are heard.
Press down the SET buttons again and the check pro-
gram tests the gauges. Most electronic controlled
gauges go to half range, full range and then back to rest
three times.
Press the down and SET buttons again for testing the di-
agnostic display. The display alternates between light
and dark. If any defects are noted cite them on the
checklist. Return the diagnostic display to the clock by
pressing the MODE button five times.
To perform the ABS “chuff-test”, turn the ignition off.
Press down the foot brake and then turn the ignition back
on again. Listen through the side window that the ABS
self-check goes through the cycle twice. Each pass oper-
ates the ABS modulator valves once, which results in a
brief puff of air being released from each valve. The ABS
indicator turns on and off twice and then remains on.
Note: For VN/VHD vehicles with the Traction Control
System (TCS) five ’chuffs’ occur for each valve.
If the vehicle is equipped with a Volvo engine, the engine
preheater indicator stays on three to four seconds. If the
coolant temperature is over 50
C (120
F), the preheater
is not engaged. If the coolant temperature is below 50
C (120
F), the preheater progressively engages longer
depending on the coldness of the coolant. If the indicator
stays on, there is a problem in the preheater circuit.
