Note: the left module is the ECM and the right one is the TCM - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Your one of my favourite Volvo CZcams channels now!
You show us so many great tips for keeping these great cars in good shape. Thank you! (2004 xc70)
Thanks!
As you look at the box, the left module is the actual ECM (or ECU) while the right one near the engine is the TCM (Transmission control module) that appears to work for both manual and automatic transmissions
what happens if i only have the ecm and not the tcm
Just wanted to update. Cleaning the transmission connectors on the connector tree on the driver side towards the front bumper with deoxit d5 made the code go away. Back to normal as far as I can tell.
I would absolutely recommend anyone with this code try this FIRST as the cost is only about $15 and anybody can do it. The connector tree is near the driver side front headlight, and they are all oriented vertically, so water can easily collect on top of the connectors and soak down into it, causing corrosion. As an additional bonus, you can use your extra spray cleaner to clean your battery terminal or any connectors you ever mess with in the future, and even clean your turn signal switch stalk if it's acting up.
Appreciate the update. Would you recall us the code you had ?
@@Peppermint1 I forgot what it was but it was a transmission control module code. Researching the code online showed potential repairs as replacing and reprogramming tcm or replacing shift sensor. Thankfully I knew I had caused the code by introducing water into the engine bay, and back when researching it led me to your video. Most likely was whatever code you discussed on this video
I have a 2009 xc90..I can be driving and all of a sudden my vehicle has no power..i can step on the gas and it doesn't do anything. it does end up coming out of it quickly though. I can turn my car off and turn it back on and it seems to be out of it. I have vida..all it came up with for codes are p1719 and ecm-p001268...any idea? Thank you
We have the issue. I'd like to hear from you.
Thank you for all your video, I took out the little fan and applied 12v red+ , black -, so the airflow direction is blowing air into the box. But when I put back the fan into position, I can't feel the airflow? Previous owner never changed cabinet filter. I changed it once I got it. So could it be any clogging behind the firewall.
I did wonder too about the air direction. It's not easy to measure it - may try keeping a napkin close see if it suck or pushes it. My impression was the fan was actually pulling air from the box towards inside the cabin, which would perhaps make more sense, otherwise it will have to fight against the vacuum from the cabin blower. I'm not aware if the fan duct goes behind the cabin filter, I would guess it enters the climate ducts before the filter.
@@Peppermint1 I will double check with wiring. I encounter the ECM or CEM overheating issue. Dash shut down, but still running. So I wonder, for the ECM the cooling fan is not strong enough. Try to put a temperature controller there to monitor the temp.
@@calebandrachellezhang3597 What are the problems ? Only dash shut down ? Which year the car ?
@@Peppermint12004 V70, 70k, Basically like online many people described: A/C not working, All meter not working, the alarm system not working. Very Rough driving. It is because CAN bus failure. so the CEM and other parts can't communicate
@@calebandrachellezhang3597 There might actually be several separate issues with the car. AC not working can be a problem with lack of freon or too much clutch gap at the compressor or faulty cabin temp sensor. Alarm system is caused by failed alarm siren module. Dash gauges may be caused by the common DIM failure but mostly 2002-2003 cars were affected - possibly early 2004 if they have similar dash. For other problems look under the dash see which model of CEM you have. If it has many small fuses on it, it's the one that gets water leaking on it from a faulty seal under the windshield. If it rather has like black small relays, it's the earlie CEM model which is not affected by water.
Hi mate! I have following you since years, but never attempted to ask you. May you help me? I have replaced everything in my 2006 XC70 gearbox even valve body. All shifts now are smooth but reaching 80kmh it fails. Dtc are ECM-5130 tcm signal issues and TCM-002F torque converter slips . I have put a LOT of money and time to get no solutions!! Thanks for your help. Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Hey. I have same as your problem.! At 80kms torque converter slips.. so what you did? Cleaned contacts?
Do you have a link to the post? I just cleaned my engine bay with a garden hose to get rid of old oil spills and ended up with the same code
I don't. Here's how to try removing the modules - battery disconnected of course. Also remove the ignition coils see if there's water on the spark plugs, soak it up with towel without removing the plugs czcams.com/video/pqCzHmM03mU/video.html
@@Peppermint1 you are awesome, thank you for these videos! Just checked spark plugs and no water... I may change the oil just in case
@@Peppermint1 once I get these computers pulled out, which contacts do you think I should start cleaning up? I got a code TCM -0002 .... And on on unrelated subject I've also been battling a p1171 forever lol. Can't find any vaccum leaks and am thinking next step is clean the fuel injectors and check fuel pressure and clean throttle body... And that'll give me a chance to inspect the lower tube while Ive got it all taken apart. 01 S60 t5 by the way
@@chadg6874 When the two modules come out, each has many contact pins at the bottom. I'd just take a hair blower and make sure there are dry and none has green corrosion on it. Careful with the magenta plastic locking tabs, these must be fully released to unlock the modules. It's tricky, so work with patience
@@Peppermint1 will do. I've got the tongs in my fcp cart too
Will this solve ECM-711A code on a 2002 S80 B6294S2?
If you have a minute, my volvo has thrown a P0600 and I've looked up code and it's all described for issues concerning the ecm and tcm but when I was trying to plug the code reader into the OBD2 port it kept having issue communicating with the reader. I can tell that there's an issue with the port because I had to hold it in a specific spot to get it to work but do you think that the P0600 code can be related to the bad port?
I doubt port connection would cause a code. Try also asking on several of the forums for that code
@@Peppermint1 I did try a forum I believe you linked in one of your videos. But I did find after that the vacuum pump relay was blown and the vacuum pump is bad as well as the little 3 way black valve that connects to it from one of the black hoses.
Can it be replaced from a junk yard one?
I have a 2002 volvo c70 , it has 200,00 miles, anyway its doing something weird when I put it into drive it sometimes double clunks rather abruptly , sometimes it's just a double bump that's not a abrupt one, when it's cold it doesn't do it, and sometimes it depends on the way my steering wheel is ( what way it's turned) other than that it drives pretty good , everyone in a whole it shifts a little weird but not major mostly if I gas it too fast not sure how to explain , the mechanic said it was my transmission , it shifts smoothly MOST of the time , the mechanic would not even bother w it, I haven't had it long and truly love it already but I'm not sure what to think it is, the mechanic seemed like maybe he had another car he would have rather worked on🥴 any thoughts? I have no clue about cars but am wondering if I should just drive it into the ground like the mechanic said
That's what's happening to mine, and the guy before me poorly maintained it. And I hoped after changing all fluids it would work like new but when shifting to 3rd to 4th gear it's starts to slip and mis fire. I'm not sure if it's ECM or the transmission wear and tear on gears
It thesame as i experiencing now with my volvo s60 2001. My mechanic told me the problem is the tranmission gearbox. Because when i change the gear from 2 to 3 then acceleration is not as it should be n the arpm going crazy and thesame when i change from 5 to 3 i feel no power at all. I look at it if the is wet or so.
It's automatic ? What you describe sounds like the transmission is slipping in the 3rd gear. May be because a garage removed the top 27mm bolt thinking it's a refill hole, or simply because the 3rd gear band is completely worn. For the first see this czcams.com/video/VFyQptqISsc/video.html For the second this www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=71963
No my transmission is manuel not authomatic. But thanks for your help maybe its the end of my car. I can't afford ti change the gearbox.
@@duposflies2621 For manual, look underneath the transmission for any leaks, and also monitor the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir (it uses the same fluid for the clutch slave cylinder). It is looses brake fluid it's indeed a slave cylinder job - expensive on this car because it needs everything replaced and the engine has to be removed from the car. Also ask on this forum, they have a lot of manual transmissions www.volvoforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=19
I have volvo s60 2002 it gave me this code
TCM-0099 control module ; internal fault
How i can fix it plz?

hello, I have a problem with my volvo S60R 2004. Basically, my dashboard is nonfunctional given that I have a fuse that burns momentarily. The fuses 24 and 27 of the fuse box on the driver's side. The fuse 24 is for climate control, intrusment clusters and the power seat driver. I had the car scanned and the P0650 code came out.
P0650
ECM-6B00
Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)
Signal missing. Intermittent signal fault. I used a multimeter to find out what was going on and it looks like I have a short circuit because it goes up to about 11.50 amp. I ended up buying an ECB3000B. It’s a short detector. Please help me.

Peppermint Thank you very much!
@@student8165 Welcome!
Hi i have v60 2012 and having all the warning lights one also no electric is working could that be cem or ecu
I cannot give advice, but a first easy check is alternator and battery voltage (along with their cables, connectors, etc). May also ask us on forums www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=26
How do you get the ECM married to the car without expensive dealership.
volvos60xc70xc90buyersguide.home.blog/
Do you have to go to the dealer after replacing the ecm to have them reprogram it?
Normally repair services for electronic modules will try to salvage yours. It works most of the times. Xemodex in Canada is expensive, there are other electronic module repair services on Ebay. In rare situations where it really needs replaced, I think Xemodex can give you a used CEM already programmed from your old one, but they are not cheap. And Volvo will only reprogram if you buy a new unit$$$$. May also have a look on this blog, at the beginning volvos60xc70xc90buyersguide.home.blog/
@@Peppermint1 thank you for the reply.
et en français sa donne quoi ?(je parle pour la vidéo)
Est-ce que le CC button fonctionne ? En bas a droite de l'image. S'il marche, tu peux avoir une traduction en francais czcams.com/video/RXL3-Le9VKc/video.html
