Default Closure to my ETM failure

Well, my ETM is finally fixed, no thanks to Volvo Cars. BUT I feel I have a much better product. Last week I decided to bite the bullet and do the work myself and send my failed ETM to Xemodex in Canada. I am so happy I did. I sent it out Tuesday, they fixed it Wednesday, and I had it back on Thursday. It feels so good to not worry about the ETM now. Anyway, if anybody has problems with their ETM, screw the bureaucracy and send it to Xemodex. Here are a couple of pictures and a video of the results.

It has that new ETM smell, lol


The ETM to manifold gasket they sent me


Mounting surface for the ETM


Make sure you have a stubby ratchet or a flex head! I started out using a standard ratchet and was too close for comfort to the radiator. Plus it's new, haha.


Installed.


And the video

Check out the link I posted. They replace the bad design with their digital angle sensor.
