- Hello in todays video I will show you guys how to do mobilizer reset in Volvo p2s when you car all of a sudden wont start.
This happens when you have bad battery or one of the main modules on high canbus communication lines taking down the communication.
Here is a link to xemodex website where you can messege the technician there he is very knowledgeable on our cars computer/modules issues he can help diagnose and repair module:

Here is high quality engine oil brands i use and recommend for turbo cars:
1. amzn.to/3QV3524 (made in Germany)
2. amzn.to/2J3QrAw (made in Japan) - Auta a dopravní prostředky
This happens usually when you have bad battery or you plugged in a scan tool to the car that the car didn't like it will cause this sort of issue. Or one of your Modules on High Can bus is bad like CEM, ECM, Awd module, BCM..
I didn’t believe in that. I thought it’s next magic trick but I said whatever I will try it. My v70 it’s working now! Thank you!!!
You just took my stomach pain away,
Thanks for making this video 👍🏼
You saved my bacon today! Had my 2006 C70 for 3 weeks then immobilizer today. I was immobilized 30 miles from home with no food or water, googled and found your video, the first way worked!!! TY!👍😊🌞
Thank you!!! I have a 2004 XC90 that was refusing to start. Your trick did it for me and kept me from having to take care into mechanic.
Many thanks. Volvo immobilizer issue fixed.
Worth a like and a comment for me.. just worked perfect.. thank you for your video 💪
Thanks it worked for me! I appreciate the vid
Top man! Worked a treat!
THIS HAPPENED TO MYSELF. JUS BEFORE HAND THERE WAS A PUFF OF SMOKE. I THINK THE ENGINE SEIZED. 500KM S40 2.0D. SHE HAD A GOOD RUN, MAYBE THIS WIZARDY MAY WORK. HAHA. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. I LEARNED MORE ABOUT TRANSPODERS AND IMMOBILERS IN 10 MINS. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS
Lifesaver thanks a lot
S80 its working nice thanks
Thanks for this.. seems to have worked for me
I found that my 08 xc90 will do this if I have another fob on me from a different vehicle. Once my wife's xc70, then my 16 Fusion.
Thanks. That reset is a cool trick. I think my old fob is weak, I'll have to replace it.
I have S40 2007 model which blew up the tracker and is now cranking 😢. Immobilizer appeared first then service mobilazer followed. I hope what you did works for me also, thanks million times bro.
I'm have the immobilizer issue today like rn smh . I'm going to try exactly what your saying in this video, plz make more videos of volvo faults and repairs
If you have that happening most likely your battery is going out
20 degrees outside and late for work. Thanks for the slowest intro I've ever seen
Thanks. Same problem. Fix it. Thanks
My insurance collapsed and my dealer turned my car off , I’m going to try this method 😂
Btw. Had similar issue and fixed it. First I changed the battery in the key. It helped for couple of starts, but then the problem came back. Then I tried the second key. It worked for a while but again, the problem returned. So I switched back to the first key. And ever since the problem was gone.
Thanks, for the tip. Put on a new battery and my car wouldn't start. Tried the first method and fired right up! 👍👍
Thanks 😎😎👍👍👍
Thanks!
My V50 felt like it wasn't kicking in the turbo, like it had went into limp mode, but it ended up my engine cover had rubbed through wires on top of the engine, once the wires where repaired she was back to normal, but then my next issue was the immobilizer message, fingers crossed your video fixes my latest problem lol
U ever fix this issue?
I have a 2011c70 . shut off while driving , crank no start, had it towed home , seemed like fuel issue for sure. only code was a misfire . No immobilizer code. Checked PEM for corrosion , looked good. Found no access to fuel pump under seat so i figured I should make sure it was fuel pump before going through all the work . Watched your video and turned key off and on five times and car started immediately . Has been running ever since . Changed key fob battery . Still do not what caused the problem. It is better to find a problem and fix it than having it go away and you never know what the original problem was.
Thank you, the second method worked for me. Just open and close the physical keyhole and key twice, then the car would start without the 5x on/off technique. Could be a combination of both methods though, who's to say? Previously I got a tip to get out of the car, lock it with the key button, wait 2 minutes and try starting it again, that worked for most of the time but not this time. I leave my car unlocked when in my garage box. Maybe I should lock it anyway. Btw the keyhole was hard to use as it barely gets used and was stuck, after applying more force on the key than I was comfortable with it turned in the end. So make sure even if you don't have this issue that the keyhole turns smoothly in case you need to 'reset' the car if you ever need to!
I've had this problem once more and none of these tricks worked, spend 15 min on it. I popped the hood, gave the braking module a few taps with my fingers and the problem was gone. Most likely a connector issue/some corrosion or something. It's usually when the weather is wet that this problem arises. The module can be found on the right side of the motor block (S60 at least), there's a cylindrical thing sticking out of a black box, and the brake tubing enters the device as well.
God bless you real good sir, you won't understand howmuch help you have been.
Have been on this all day long and I just tried this and the car is working fine now xc90 Thank you so much.
Wow that's crazy
Anyone know if this wud work for my p3 V70? or what the analogous procedure to turning the key 5x when its a key fob that fits in a slot w button start? hitting the button 5x? Anyway, great video thanx!!
Great info thx. My 2004 S60 wouldn't start after the remote fell apart while tin the ignition. When I repaired the remote, the car failed to start. It turns over, but will not start. Lots of fuel in the tank but, I added gas antifreeze, at 0 C ( 32 F ) but it still won't start. Now I'm checking the fuses...also, I have to reverse the key after the first attempt or it won't turn over at all.
In mine it was ECU
@@BuiltForSpeed how'd you found out it was ECU?
@@aGGeRReS because i tested everything else and it passed. Measure the resistance to the ecu and everything checked out. And sent out my ecu to xemodex they verified it.
@@BuiltForSpeed thanks.
after replacing my key fob with one that doesn't seem to have an RFID tag inside, i can't get the car to start as there's nothing for the immobilizer mechanism to "read" from. is there any way to disable this mechanism so i can start the car? am i doomed to spend like 500 USD on a valet key?
Hello, is there any chance that you could help what to do ? I just bought s60 2.5t AWD in auction without keys and I need to know if the engine or clutch is still working. I know that I can go to Volvo and ask them for a key but in my country they want like 600$ for it. So that is out of table.. I have a switch box with key from a different Volvo s60 so I just need to reprogram the ECU. Thank you for any help !
Would this work with keyless entry?
sounds like you have a bad or intermittent immobilizer. they are located under the steering wheel. they do go bad. really easy to replace. its a green color
the stock turbo can outflow the stock maf
it happens sometimes
That wasn't my case i got it sorted i made update video on the maf code issue.
If someone else had the car could of at one time swapped wires in the wrong position inside the plug end. Might wanna check the correct path and if not do a ohm's test. On the wiring each one testing from one end to the other end and you'll find your bad wire then.
Thanks for the info, ya never know with these cars
Also i have an idea for the mass airflow sensor issue. Is the turbo broken? It must be something there because there is nothing else in that line that seems off. Worth a shot right?
On the maf code issue I made video's after this one I got it sorted out.
Do you know if this immobilizer message is similar to the "Start prevented try again" message? Mine tends to crank at times, other times you'll hear the relays and then it would start up and cut off with that message displayed which I mentioned. I dont think I tried the procedure you outlined but i tried similar ways, which seemed to work once or twice and then it got worse and just wouldn't start. Its with the Mechanic now and he confirmed the diagnostic tool showing a transponder error. Would this mean the transponder needs replacing or the key needs to be reprogrammed? Im going to share these 2 steps with him to try. Thanks.
Same here. Temporary the problem is fixed with the new battery in the key. Will check if the problem still occurs.
@@aGGeRReS I've fixed my issue by key reprogramming because I didn't have a 2nd key. I've also had a faulty cam sensor which caused the problem with the crank but no start.
The violet wire should be 1 volt with key on, engine off. At idle, it should be around 1.7 volts and will increase with air mass as you increase throttle. Green wire is 12 volt feed. Violet with white stripe wire is 5 volt reference. Gray with white stripe is ground. You have an issue with your signal wire, check the harness for damage or shorts. Also make sure your other circuits have the correct reading.
I already checked the wiring it looks fine. The sensor reading when checking on scan tool or logging it is at max when i disconnect the sensor the readings drop to 0.
Something is obviously wrong. Just because the wiring looks fine doesn’t mean it is fine. Have you checked for continuity from the connector at the MAF all the way back to the ECM? Having 8 volts when you’re supposed to have 1 volt on your signal wire is why your MAF reading on the scan tool shows it’s off. Either you have a short to power, chaffed wire, or potentially ECM could be backfeed if through that circuit.
@@tazz9690 i checked the wire from half way about i have not pulled the ecm yet i will do that next if it checks out idk might have to crack the ecm open. I knew the voltage with ign on should be 1v and when running 1-2. I don't understand why its so high. The thing is if i disconnect it it goes to 0 so obviously has something to do with the sensor. Because if there was a short to power the ecm would see it with maf sensor connected or disconnected no?
@@BuiltForSpeed so with the car running and the sensor disconnected it goes to 0 volts? If so, check the other wires for the proper voltages. That signal wire gets its voltage from the sensor and sends it to the ECM. If one of the other circuits are bad, could be causing the signal wire reading to be off.
Ok I'll be checking it out when i get home. Thank you
I had similar problem. Fix It. Take of the fuse box. In your work table disasemble It, open It. You Will see the circuit .... In muy case I found corrosion óxid un some contacts. I clean them with isopropelic alcohol. After, I repose all. The car restart normaly, perfecto.
My ecu had oxidation. Probably frol coolant because it's right next to it.
Hello I have a similar issue with my XC90 2008 and is been like that around 2 weeks now. 5 different mechanics came to check and nothing. I will try tomorrow morning to see, thanks.
I know it’s been a while, but how did it go?
@@richardhandler8606 I just put it to the side, still with without working.
Did you remove the key from the ignition in between each of the 5 times you turned it ON/OFF?
No
So where did you find directions for this bizarre and complicated procedure?
In my case I had the car in my garage and
Left the door open for almost 2 months after that I start the car without any issues then decide to drive it for a while then came back home turned off engine and in a little while tried to start it again but dies completely no cranck no click .
This happened a couple months ago and this trick worked & car drove just fine. Today it didn't start again. This time, I only go the immobilizer message once out of several attempts to start it, but never got it started. Is battery the most likely problem?
Battery, or BCM, or the CEM maybe glitching
My 2007 s80 won't start unless I remove and fix battery terminal, and once I stop over at anywhere again I will have to do the same procedure before the car will start, what could be the problem?
My one switch off because the air bag warning light
I took it off without taking battery off
I had to use computer to switch the air bag then
All ok
I’m sitting here in my immobilized S60R, tried both tricks about 7204 times now. Nothing works. I guess I live here now.
A got this message today on my s60 d5 but won’t start now only thing I can think of is I bought a another s40 d5 and been told keeping keys together could make the immobiliser go of
Nope this is the only immobilizer reset. Just make sure your battery is good.
@@BuiltForSpeed ok thanks will try your technique tomorrow when battery’s full of charge . What position do you turn the key to while you turn it 5 times
@@jchalmers28jc18 to position 2/ign on
@@BuiltForSpeed tried both techniques today with battery charged .no change still no starting . I have only ever seen the immobiliser message once on my dash board just when it cut out not showing now
@@jchalmers28jc18 i had to sometimes do the reset procedure like 5 to 6 times before i got mine to work you have to make sure you lock your car after each time.
I hope those Volvo super geniuses release that if that happens in the middle of a four lane during rush hour it could kill you like almost it did to me ,
your car shut down and immobilizer message popped up?
To remove the engine I suggest you take out the oxygen sensor and give it a good clean. Clean the chamber as well. One at the bottom. I have discovered with mine it gets clogged.
Engine light
Seemed faked. Surprisingly though, it worked. Thanks
U said it works I’m getting start prevented try agin
day after getting tires on, inspection and alignment at monroe muffler, i get this code
Was it a hot day when this happened?
@@BuiltForSpeed i got this code today, it’s a really hot day, does that have something to do with it?
@@cbarria90 if its hot most likely one of your Hi Can bus modules are failing most likely CEM
@@BuiltForSpeed watched a bunch of CZcams vids and read a lot of forums, tried almost every advice, finally after carrying a tall friend in the passenger seat, the connectors went loose (he may have touched them with the feets) so I removed them all, plugged them back in, and problem solved !
@@cbarria90 glad you got it figured out.
Volvo's are so problematic bro 🤦♂️ i had nothing but problems with mine, now it looks your have alot of problems too. The p2 are just moneyyy piiits 😂
Lol tell me about it
@@BuiltForSpeed get a honda with a k20a engine bro 🤤 best engin 🔥 mines boosted on 12psi and making 470whp with no issues at all!!
@@mas_v70 nah i like my awd cars and i like my p3 t6 that thing is beast over 350wheel hp and over 500ft lbs of wheel torque
This car is trash never again they made it to break down
if you maintain it and take care of it, its fine but if it gets neglected it can be a nightmare
I wouldn’t be buying a Volvo again! Crap car
The p2 i would agree. The 2008 and newer i disagree. Its amazing car. And reliable
Buy a british car, ok. Thats worse.
