Foreword
The descriptions and service procedures contained in this manual are based on designs
and methods studies carried out up to September 2004.
The products are under continuous development. Vehicles and components produced
after the above date may therefore have different specifications and repair methods.
When this is judged to have a significant bearing on this manual, supplementary service
bulletins will be issued to cover the changes.
The new edition of this manual will update the changes.

In service procedures where the title incorporates an operation number, this is a
reference to V.S.T. (Volvo Standard Times).
Service procedures which do not include an operation number in the title are for general
information and no reference is made to V.S.T.
The following levels of observations, cautions and warnings are used in this Service
Documentation:
Note: Indicates a procedure, practice, or condition that must be followed in order to have
the vehicle or component function in the manner intended.
Caution: Indicates an unsafe practice where damage to the product could occur.
Warning: Indicates an unsafe practice where personal injury or severe damage to the
product could occur.
Danger: Indicates an unsafe practice where serious personal injury or death could occur.

NB!
Active/inactive fault code
Certain fault codes will be inactive when the engine is
turned off. Start the engine to check whether the fault
code is still inactive when the engine is running.
Connector
Always check that there is no oxidation and that the
connector pins are not damaged. Also check the pin
retention force. For more information, see service
information group 371.
If the connector block is undamaged, reconnect it.
Check if the fault code is still active. If the fault code
is still active, continue fault tracing according to
the instructions.
After any necessary remedies to the connector
block
Refit the connector. Check if the fault code has
become inactive.
If the fault code is still active, continue fault tracing
according to the instructions.
