S60 Dice readout. Any advice?

Post by polartx »

Before I can register the car I need to solve these:

The CCM-001F and ECM-261A cause the check engine light to come on (however I can temporarily clear these to pass inspection)

The SRS-00D4 Causes the ! light and DIM reading SRS-Airbag Service Urgent. I can clear this one but the next time I turn the car on its back (which won't help me with inspection). I know the signal isn't really faulty as I can turn it on and off with the Dice software, I've read that any electrical work can cause the error and I know the guy before installed a new cup holder which could cause the error (or so I've read).

I'm hoping for some input before I take it to a mechanic who wants to charge me for an entirely new DIM.

Thanks!

You need to find out why the SRS light is on. I can't quite see on Tapatalk which SRS airbag it's pointing to. It could be the driver's steering airbag or one of the seat airbags. Nonetheless you need to first disconnect the battery then find the relevant airbag connector and unplug it (they are characterised by orange wire with green connectors) Clean this connector with contact cleaner and reconnect it. Then go and reset by Vida once more. The SRS message should be gone permanently.

I'm going to try this today, are those the plugs underneath the seats? I've read about there being something underneath the center console, (I know mine was replaced) is there something worth investigating under there?

The airbag signal wire is orange and the connector is green/purple.

Be sure to disconnect the battery first. I printed your Vida snapshot but the text was a blur. Which airbag is it pointing to?

Now that I'm logged in to a PC I can see that the SRS module may be your bear.

It may pay to check all the connectors and be sure there isn't increased resistance on them by cleaning all connectors to airbags.

You also have curtain airbags and you will need to find the connector for those and the dashpad airbag.
