That's something I need to do. Did you have to go to the Volvo dealer for the air bags or is the a better place to buy them?

I would think there is some kind of switch but I haven't found it. My 2000 Volvo will start without the clutch pushed down but it will not shift into gear unless the clutch is pushed very tight to the floor, or maybe the clutch is worn out or out of adjustment. Guess I should check that out🤪

Are they both Hydraulic or electric. I think the first thing I would do is check the fuses, If it is Hyd there might be a fuse on or near the pump motor

Fixed my ABS today, took the brake drum of and found that the wheel sensor had moved away from the ring gear by about 3/8 of an inch. Had to remove the brakes and the sensor mount to move the sensor back to the ring gear. No more ABS light on. 👍

Thank I will look into both those options

Hi all Is there a way to clear fault codes on a Gen 1 Volvo with a Detroit Diesel or can it only be done by the dealer?

Thanks I will check that first

Just finished putting my left side fuel tank back on. It had a small leak so I took it off and took it to a tank welding shop. Next job is to try to fix the anti-lock brakes, info center says I have a bad right rear wheel sensor or bad electrical. Anyone have any experience with the ABS?

noteven loved the video, gave me a real big laugh Thank You

Ely Minnesota was -50 this morning so -28 in Duluth is a little better lol, at least there was no wind. Right now its -20

If you test it and it works properly and you feel it is doing the job for you I would say its not necessary to replace it. Over the last 19 years I am sure the technology has improved and so that is some thing to consider in your decision on replacing it or not.

I tried that on my Gen 1 and it didn't work, I don't know if there is a way to do it or if that started with the Gen 2 trucks Thanks Stan

I have about 8 inactive codes and wanted to know if I can clear them myself or do I have to go to the dealer

does holding the enter button down work on Gen 1 trucks too?

Yes I use it, it is a great resource. I use my windows lap top. Thank You Mark

Nice looking truck, you will be very happy with it. I haven't found one thing I don't like about towing with an HDT, besides its just plain fun Congrats

I think I fixed my ac problem in the sleeper and thought I would pass along what I found. My sleeper heating/cooling control is a potentiometer, so I removed it, sprayed it with electrical contact cleaner and worked it back and forth a bunch of times, put it back in and now I have cold air in the sleeper. Hope this might help someone else down the road

Thank You should have remembered the resource guide, I have used it many times

Thanks for the info, Charged it last summer, had to recharge it this week added 2 lbs Shrader valves on the both low and high side were leaking, I thought I found the leak guess I will have to dig deeper Thanks Stan

Hi All I have a 2000 Volvo 610 last summer my sleeper blew nice cold air but on heat it still blew cold air, that was ok. This summer it blows hot air when on cold or hot temp setting, not ok. Don't know where to start looking or and I missing some thing simple. Thanks Stan

Looks Great

Randy thanks for the info this is definitely on my project list. Back in the early 90s I put a Lambo kit on it and always wanted to upgrade the power plant

I needed a piece of metal skirting to cover the hole where my fold out steps where and I went to the local RV dealer and they had a lot of left over metal skirting from different repairs they have made. I picked thru what they had and found a piece that worked perfect, cost was reasonable

I have a 1986 Pontiac Fiero with the 2.8 motor and I always wanted to do a engine swap to a 3800 and was told that you need a hoist to lift the car off the engine cradle ( engine comes out the bottom) since you have done this I figured you would know if it can come out the top or not. Thanks

Thanks for the info I also have a Detroit so maybe it was a normal amount of oil, I will keep an eye on it for sure.
