    Tried this and it battery light came on then turned off after third try. I don’t have a quality scanner yet but will have one soon. Thank you for this post. I am surprised that Volvo doesn’t have you pat your head and rub your stomach three times before pushing the warning light switch😀😀😀

    Procedure works on my XC60 2017 D4.
    I had a trouble at the beginning, because I didn't realise that it's necessary to press and hold ignition switch for a 5 second.
    But finally I've managed it.

    Big thank you sir, I tried it on my V60 D6 and worked just fine.
    In my case after changing the battery I could not use preconditioning anymore. It gave me the message "preconditioning stopped battery saving mode". First I tried the trick with removing the sensor-plug as other videos suggest but that did not work.
    After trying your trick here everything works as normal.
    So back to a warm car every morning thanks to your great tip!

    After 100s of short journeys, and a battery warning message, I bought a charger and left the battery on charge overnight.
    Start-stop still never worked.
    I filled these instructions and it started working immediately.

    Thanks for the post. I recently bought a 2015 S60 and would get the battery low charge message when the car wasn't running and anything that drew power was on, even the visor light. I had an appointment to have the dealer look at it, and they said the battery was put in new just before I bought it, but they would check it out. I found your video, and it solved the problem, and saved me an unnecessary appointment. Much appreciated.

    Worked on my '17 XC60 T5 Inscription
    Couple of notes. As others have said, it's not obvious at first, but you need to push the ignition button and hold it for 5 seconds. After turning the light switch fron Auto to 'on' - by turning the selector clockwise from Auto (author calls it "dipped", which I think is British for low beam) - the vid states in the beginning to press the rear fog light button 6X. Basically, that's turning it on and off 3X. Then - and I picked this up in another vid - you press the emergency flashers button a TOTAL of 3X. The first turns it on, the second turns it off, and then the third turns it on again. If you notice, you can see his flashers are going after he's done pressing the button. Again, not obvious from either the written or visual instructions, but if you follow this, it should work.

    This weekend I replace the battery in my 2013 XC60-T6 and tried your BMS reset procedure. No flashing battery icon on the dash afterwards. Tried it several times. Afterwards, I checked the BMS reset counter in the ELM Car Scanner and it remains like 2800 days since last reset. I also tried disconnecting the BMS wire at the battery for 30 seconds and reconnected it. Didn't seem to have any effect. Any thoughts?

    • @EV_OBD

      @jamessimmons8352 4 роки тому +5

      @@EV_OBD Thanks for the quick response. I finally got it to work this AM. I promise you I followed your instructions to a T numerous times with no luck. Today, I set the lights to "Dipped" before turning on the ignition, then followed the procedure. With the car scanner on and the SoC and Days since reset showing, I watched the display. Sure enough after about 10 seconds, the Days since Reset dropped to "0" and the SoC jumped from 71% to 83%. In all previous tries, I had the Lights set to Auto when turning on the ignition. Then switched to Dipped after Ignition was on. Not sure if this was the change that allowed it to work, but worth noting just in case. If that is the case, you might want to clarify that Dipped "on" before Ignition "on" is the correct sequence. Also in my case the Battery icon does not flash on the dash even though the reset does work. Again many Thanks!

    Our 2012 V70 D4 (163PS) geartronic died on the A1 at the weekend. Lost power, came to a halt and cut out but lights remained on and all electrical functions unresponsive. Nothing would operate at all. DIS cycled through every fault message, erroneously reporting bulb failures, immobiliser needed resetting, ABS failure, brake failure, SRS failure, DTC failure, gear selector service required. Basically every fault its capable of displaying was displayed. Battery charge was at 11.8v. No response when connected to a jumper pack. Recovered home (with a locked handbrake, so getting it off the truck was a bundle of fun). Replaced battery with new one that was charged to 13.04v. Handbrake did disengage but still no response from car at all. Torque Elm 32 reads 0 faults. Double checked it with my old Autel OBD2 unit and that is same, 0 faults. Any ideas anybody?

      Observe battery parameters in Car Scanner for several days, maybe there is no need to replace battery yet. Occassional "Low battery" does not mean the battery is bad, just as "Low fuel" is not a sign of bad fuel tank:
      ua-cam.com/video/ASJaTxL9c0Y/v-deo.html
      Wait 15 minutes after ignition OFF before disconnecting battery terminals. Windows are simple - close window and hold button for another 4-5 seconds.

      This trick should be used ONLY when you installed new 12V battery! This is not for resetting "low battery" warning! You can monitor the battery state of charge (SoC) in Car Scanner app - "low battery" warning appears when SoC drops below 60-65% SOC. In such case car should be driven more until battery is charged to 75-80% SoC. Good advice: don't listen to music with engine off. Any additional electronics may drain the battery when car is parked - check your quiescent current: ua-cam.com/video/Op6PcVd5O2g/v-deo.html

    Alternative method for cars without a rear fog lamp switch (some US cars):
    Close doors
    Turn on ignition (but don't start engine)
    Wait for battery light to come up
    Flash brights 5 times (pulling indicator stalk)
    Press and release brake 3 times
    Battery symbol on dashboard should flash after 5-10 seconds
    Let me know if this method worked in your car. I have not tested it myself.

      @EV_OBD  3 роки тому

      Pls. read video description :) You can check result in Car Scanner app. Volvos before 2009 have no BMS sensor on main battery, no need to reset BMS! Car is equipped with BMS only if you have this additional wire on battery: ua-cam.com/video/uH9TmL5mHOs/v-deo.html
