Does VIDA analyze the 12v car battery, like snap-on, foxwell tester/analyzers?

Analyze? I’m not sure what you mean.

VIDA get info from CAN stream show voltage for you . But sometimes it works strange. ))
I could see more than 60 V value. Looks like there is some bug in the VIDA sw.

I do know there are versions of the cracked Vida out there that hav bugs. I’ve run into them. And replaced my Vida with another that doesn’t have that specific bug (like the fuel pump test, I’ve seen that crash Vida, and where as with another source file it doesn’t.

Greetings Volvorines!

I recently purchased Volvo Vida 2014D for Windows 10 from Volvo Diagnostics (https://volvodiag.com/). The installation was smooth, and I successfully set it up using VirtualBox. So far, everything is running flawlessly, and I’m excited to start using the software for my 2006 Volvo V70.

However, I’m now at a crossroads – which DICE unit should I get to connect to my car? I’m located in Europe, so I’m looking for recommendations on where to purchase a reliable DICE unit and any tips or advice you can offer about the process.

Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

SVDNS.info is the only source I would trust for Europe.
