Will the silicone vacuum hoses ...

sorry my car has 190 000km on it. I've also followed the instructions at http://www.volvospeed.com/CheckEngine.php to check for any codes, but it doesn't seem to return anything... when I have the jumper in any of the sockets and then press the button for a second nothing happens... anyone know why?
