Instrument Cluster - DIM repair

Post by trickyrabbit »

TLDR: 2013 XC90 3.2 AWD, random codes and lights, instrument cluster not working. Is there a reputable place near Denver, CO to have the cluster repaired, or somewhere to ship if for repair?

Greetings all,

After 4-5 years of lurking on this forum thinking about buying an XC90, I finally did this past December. It's a 2013 XC90 3.2 AWD. I am very grateful for the guidance in the various 'what to look for' posts. We have four kids and I wanted a safe vehicle for my wife to drive them around in. She had been driving a 2012 Ford F-250 diesel, long bed, crew cab, so it took her some time to warm up to it.

I am working out of state and won't be back for two weeks and normally do all the car maintenance and repair. She has been getting various check engine lights and errors, and the cluster just stopped working the other day. Is there a place in or near Denver that repairs clusters? I have seen many places offer repair for the older models, but not up to 2013. Also many DIYs for earlier models. Is the removal similar to the older models? I feel confident she can remove the cluster.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Just to update this, my wife took it to a Volvo specialist and had them 'reset something and update the software'. The issue has not returned. It was not a faulty cluster.
