bigredhdt Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 How often do you check and reset codes? I check mine about once a month. They areally all inactive, but some have a higher frequency of occurrences. What would cause you to take action? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest THE TRAILERKING Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 If keep getting trouble codes.............Shouldn't just keep clearing the code. Should get the trouble fixed to end trouble codes from happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennWest Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 It's emission related probably. I hate them. Only problem I ever have with my truck is emissions. I like clean air as much as everyone but they are problematic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDually Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Is there a list somewhere of all the codes and their meanings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like clean air as much as everyone but they are problematic. Glenn, the HUD in a Volvo will throw a code if you change to LED lights. There are codes for the transmission, engine systems, air suspension, air bags, lighting systems, climate systems, brake systems and many more. It is impossible to "guess" it is emissions related. Â Is there a list somewhere of all the codes and their meanings? There are several lists out there. I have the one listing all of the FreedomLine transmission codes (since I had transmission issues at last years rally) and if you call Volvo's support line they will tell you what the codes are also. The HUD operators manual lists some of the most common codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennWest Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 My apologies. I assumed hdt was like pick up diesels when it came to emissions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclord2002 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 OK, Big5er, what is HUD...that's a new one on me. I thought HUD was Heads UP Display. Thanks. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big5er Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Charlie, you are exactly right I used HUD mistakenly...what do you call the display in the instrument cluster? My manual says: Operating Instructions Display, graphic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSeas Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 I think the Volvo manual calls it a DID....Drivers Information Display or HUD if you prefer.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigredhdt Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I guess that most never see any fault codes, even inactive ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big5er Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I see inactive codes all the time. I have one EGR valve that sticks occasionally and an ABS sensor that fails at start up every once in a while. My mechanic says to replace both EGR valves when the one sticks all the time and turning off the ignition, waiting a few seconds and restarting fixes the ABS sensor. When I go in for my annual service I will have the ABS sensor checked. Otherwise, I don't even bother to clear them. I look, see what they are and leave them. I also get the occasional light control module code that so far no one seems to be able to figure out the source. All the lights work, so I couldn't care less.
