1998 v70 Does VIDA 2014B Cover Year 1998 ?

Post by MrAl »

Hi,

Does the VIDA 2014B cover the year 1998 ?

I ask because the wiring diagram that came with it seems to only go down to the year 2008. I didnt install it yet, but was able to view the wiring diagram.

Any ideas?
I’ve been driving a Volvo long before anyone ever paid me to drive one.
That's probably because I've been driving one since 2015 and nobody has offered to pay me yet.

The VIDA wiring diagram module unfortunately does not cover the older cars.

Hello again,

Ok, so what about VIDA 2014B itself? Does that cover 1998 ?

It won't read Vehicle Information over DiCE, but you can access parts and repair, etc.
I use it for our 1997 850.
But prefer MVS.

Hi,

Oh ok, so it shows parts for the older cars? That's nice.

Yes, MVS is a great site, probably the best i have run into over the years i have been on the internet. If anyone out there owns a Volvo and they dont know about this site they are at a great loss.
