V70 XC (2001) How Can a Programming Update Break Everything?

A used DDM (drivers door module) will not work for you, once software is installed on any module, it cannot be used on any other car. Not sure why they would sell you one, they should know better. The best analogy I can think of is when you burn your own cd’s. Once you burn songs onto a blank cd, you can’t remove the old songs and burn new ones onto the disc. It’s a one time deal. Very similar setup with Volvo modules, once they have been installed or used on a car, they are only able to be used on that particular car, they cannot be re-sold and used on another car. That software is “burned” onto the module, and it can’t be removed.
