Climate Control Panel (ECC) question...
So I'm new to Volvos but the other day I noticed that the recycle and a/c buttons flash seventeen times before turning off.
Any ideas what this could mean? Thanks in advance! |
anyone?

put some freon in (if the ac does not blow cold).
"If it blows cold and you have flashing still, don't worry it's common on these cars." The dealer gave me that answer when I just bought my T5 so I went and got freon and the flashes occur little to no more. |
it means there is a code thrown for the ECC system, what year is your 850?

My car started this today. It blinked 17 times. I will check the pressure in the freon system when I find my gauge. Everything seems to work as of now. Anyone has up-to-date experience with this?

Any ideas what this could mean? If the lights flash when the car is first started it's because the system has found a fault. It doesn't necessarily mean you need to add freon. If you have a 93-95 you should have a diagnostic panel under the hood over by the fill neck for the windshield washer bottle. The first thing to do is read the codes since this will tell you what the system is seeing as a problem. I don't know if the system knows to set a code for low freon but if you look at the list of codes it could be anything from the temperature sensors with the little fan that is built into the grab handle above the driver or passenger seats or one of the blend doors not responding properly to its signal or one of the temperature sensors in the ducting that has failed. I have a couple of these codes. Not sure if this is a complete list. B1 Electronic climate control 111 No fault 121 Outside temperature sensor shorted to ground 122 Outside temperature sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 123 Driver’s side interior temperature sensor shorted to ground 124 Driver’s side interior temperature sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 125 Passenger’s side interior temperature sensor shorted to ground(earth) 126 Passenger’s side interior temperature sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 131 Driver’s side air duct temperature sensor shorted to ground(earth) 132 Driver’s side air duct temperature sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 133 Passenger’s side air duct temperature sensor shorted to ground(earth) 134 Passenger’s side air duct temperature sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 135 No signal from engine coolant temperature sensor 141 Faulty signal from driver’s side temperature selector switch 143 Faulty signal from passenger’s side temperature selector switch 145 Faulty signal from function selector switch 151 Signal from fan speed sensor missing or too high 152 Signal from fan speed sensor shorted to earth 211 Driver’s side damper motor position sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 212 Driver’s side damper motor position sensor shorted to earth 221 Passenger’s side damper motor position sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 222 Passenger’s side damper motor position sensor shorted to earth 231 Ventilation damper motor position sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 232 Ventilation damper motor position sensor shorted to earth 233 Floor/defrost damper motor position sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 234 Floor/defrost damper motor position sensor shorted to earth 235 Recirculation damper motor position sensor open circuit or shorted to 12 volts 236 Recirculation damper motor position sensor shorted to earth 311 Driver’s side damper motor shorted to earth or shorted to 12 volts 312 Passenger’s side damper motor shorted to earth or shorted to 12 volts 313 Ventilation damper motor shorted to earth or shorted to 12 volts 314 Floor/defrost damper motor shorted to earth or shorted to 12 volts 315 Recirculation damper motor shorted to earth or shorted to 12 volts 321 Driver’s side damper motor active too long 322 Passenger’s side damper motor active too long 323 Ventilation damper motor active too long 324 Floor/defrost damper motor active too long 325 Recirculation damper motor active too long 411 Blower fan seized or drawing excessive current 412 Driver’s side interior temperature sensor inlet fan shorted to earth 413 No control voltage at driver’s side interior temperature sensor inlet fan 414 Driver’s side interior temperature sensor inlet fan seized 415 Passenger’s side interior temperature sensor inlet fan shorted to earth 416 No control voltage at passenger’s side interior temperature sensor inlet fan 417 Passenger’s side interior temperature inlet fan seized 418 No control signal to blower fan power stage 419 Faulty diagnostic signal from blower fan power stage 420 ECU fault in program memory 511 Damper motor limit position self-adjustment not carried out |
I'll pull codes tomorrow. Not sure what port to jump but I'll check the manual.

I started the car about 20 times today, didn't do it once. :cool:

Thanks for the Mathews site. Now I have 3 codes identified that I have NO IDEA what they mean?? Is their a place that explains what the codes mean?

Yes, there are plenty of them. You can use any search engine (Bing, Yahoo, Google ...) to get a description. Just type in the trouble code. Once you've done that and it says .... , then you use some of that language or the parts name to search some more. You might also be able to search this forum (volvoforums), Volvospeed, volvoforum, turbobricks ... for a thread on any of the trouble codes.
It's likely you don't have a brand new code no one has ever had before so there should be threads that apply. You could also post them and have someone here point you in the right direction. I like to give people the tools to find out and I think most of the folks here respect someone who's at least made an effort to find information. |
