Re: FrankenVolvo - What Modules Give a Volvo its Identity?

Ill give it a shot All the engine and transmission sensors are the same Turbo and NA pressure sensors are different >>>> ECM code -The ECM controls the fuel injection which is governed by the front oxygen sensor - not related to the engine directly FI controlled by ECM via inputs from load, OXS, MA...

Re: FrankenVolvo - What Modules Give a Volvo its Identity?

All XC70 P2 ever had in US is turbo engines, 2.4T or 2.5T. 2004 is 2.5T. Not gonna work with V70 ECM unless it was using same engine as well. Hmmmmmmmm..... This makes me ask 'Why Not'? If I drop the 2.5 motor and transmission into the V70 body, how would the electronics know that there is 200cc of...

Well, looks like I am going to have to think again on this FrankenVolvo idea!. Maybe go back to my original idea to strip tires, rotors, driveshafts, and oth...

Re: FrankenVolvo - What Modules Give a Volvo its Identity?

Is the 2003 V70 also a turbo with the same engine management software as the 2004? If not, you will be cloning the ECM regardless, once you clone on module, you are all in. This sounds like a case where time/money swap does not apply - i.e., short of learning how to clone these things and buying th...

Re: FrankenVolvo - What Modules Give a Volvo its Identity?

CEM from another car means another VIN - what you are going to do with that? Otherwise, it's CEM, ECM, TCM, UEM and, maybe, BCM. Did you try Xemodex? They may succeed in cloning your broken CEM... I dont think the CEM and Bodywork VINs need to match for emissions/inspection/registration.... Bodywor...

Re: FrankenVolvo - What Modules Give a Volvo its Identity?

Maybe there is another question
4. What modules need to have matching software for them to inter-operate?

I am fortunate that I do have a complete set of working modules on the seized V70, and so if needed I could change more, or possibly all of them.
