- In this video I took off the cluster from a Volvo 70 as I had the srs message on the information display. i was able to fix it by soldering the microchips and other bits as well as the power plug it self which had tiny crack on the old solder. Lots of patients is required as well as being able to solder with a very small tip solder.
Best video ever. Thank you very much. I've recently bought a Volvo and man that's a joke car. I will try to fix this issue soon.
Thanks again for your tutorial.
You welcome glad it helped or might help, I had to solder it a few time till I got it right.
exactly same fault as shown!
thanks saved £100 exchange! cheers.
Subscribed based on this one video, super helpful with all the details needed
Well i very much appreciate it, if the video helps thats my aim.
Your video is the type of videos that makes CZcams such a valuable resource, there's nothing better than seeing all the details of a job before starting off.
You're a star mine had exactly the same problem. Re solldered those two chips and it works as new. Thankyou for putting this out
am happy the video helped :)
Thanks a lot, i had the same problem and i fix it with your help. :)
Happy to know that..
Well done...seems we all have the SRS message, and need the soldering job to be done...04 xc 70....My clock takes off and does a 24 hour lap for a few minutes....and the gas cap sends a message that clears...tighten it down, it re sets, recent gas fill or not.....re tighten, it goes away...but SRS...that remains....The way to re solder is delicate, but the 2 little chips area was revealing....great video
Glad the video helped.
@@DaringBeefcake, how does the soldering work?
@@FallaciesDetective am not a soldering expert, may have a look at some other videos on how to solder. There are some companies that can solder the cluster for you.
@@DaringBeefcake , any tips maybe about how you did it? Medium temperature? Thank you. The risk is on me 🙂
@@FallaciesDetective I’ll be honest, am a novice, my soldering iron can’t be regulated 😂 so I was extremely careful not to damage anything used flux and just applied heat to the contacts, steady hand helps and a magnifying glass and perhaps a very thin soldering tip.
great gonna take mine out tommorow!
lawn green great good luck with that.
do you have any experience with 2004 Volvo XC70 after passenger dash airbag deployment? If I replace the airbag/dash, impact sensor and SRS Control module from a junk yard car do I still need car reprogrammed? Car won't start, Airbag fault message on dash.
Am not really sure to be honest, the module may need to be reprogrammed to the car. But I haven’t come across this before, sorry.
Thanks for sharing.
the DIM of my 04' S60R , sometimes it lose the electric power suddenly , and then resume , it comes up SRS/brake warning ,
1. is this same case that you figure out in the video?
Yes as far as I remember those lights kept coming back, till I discovered it was related to the cluster.
Did the engine lose power as well? If so I need to do the same thing with my 04 s80 awd
@@williamwilcox4539 Hi, to be honest the engine did not loose power, it was the same..
Is it possible to change the place of the 2004 model volvo s60 display table and the top models with the 2013 or 2015 s60 table? Does it fit or what might be required for them. Can the problem be solved with extras such as software, program installation or extra electrical installation, thanks in advance.
I never tried that but I would think the cluster will be completely different design on a 2013 compared to a 2004, so I don’t think it’s a possible exchange am afraid. However if you get it done then do let us know.
@@DaringBeefcake ok
Do you have the link to buy the diagnos tool?
F.P.H it’s a launch x431, but someone else bought this not me. It is a few years old now and I don’t think it looks the same.
hi also the reason is only with the high beam indicator it doesn’t light up can you tell me what is responsible for this light bulb
Are you saying the high beam works fine but blue light does not come on in the dash ?
We have repaired thousands of these DIMs. After this video aired, we have been getting these DIMs in our shop looking like this guys DIM. Please don't heat up the processors directly over the coating like that. We get them in with the microprocessor pins dragged to the sides, broken and/or shorted which in most cases fries the processor. In these cases an expensive processor replacement is in order. This guy got lucky but I guarantee you it will fail soon with soldering like that. It takes precise technique and skill to solder microprocessors, not to mention the correct equipment, heat setting, solder, flux, etc. Please just send it to the pros.
Automotive Circuit Solutions thank you for the advice given to others, of course am free to play around with my car and work on it however I do agree with the fact that some time getting the job done professionally is the better option as the correct soldering equipment for ic’s may have a much neater and long lasting effect. Thanks again.
I have done this job many times...you need to solder all the connections under a microscope...and also test some of the components...some resistors are prone to go bad on theese boards
Thanks for the advice and tips, always welcome 🙏
Well if you like me do microsoldering it is an easy job 😁👌
So initially/before the re-soldering the SRS fault could not be read or could not be deleted?
Hi as far as I remember, I was able to delete the fault with the computer OBD, but fault would come back and light illuminate again, was also draining the battery. i think it depended on the flexing of the dash so sometimes it would make contact and other times not.
@@DaringBeefcake appreciate the info, thanks!
@@patryk2700 no problem, you welcome
Thank you
you welcome
i send my cluster for that it came back srs message still coast me $260
Oh may be it’s under warranty and you can resend it to get it redone.
If you feel like having a go at reworking the solder joints around the larger chips watch: czcams.com/video/EMpNXmUTuWk/video.html
Brilliant thank you
Everybody clears the code but that doesn’t really fix the problem.
nope it doesn't
