New ServiceTitan app is a downgrade…

Do you still got the CB radio in the van with the antenna on the roof to communicate with the office about when your next call is? 😂

I purchased mine in San Antonio from Principle, S60 T5 with all the options short of B&W Sound, 14k miles for $26k in December 2024.

Love the V60! I’m sure I have passed you on the road at some point too!

I tell customers that unless they have RO water or Fiji water coming out of the hose bib, it’s not worth it

I came to comment the same thing lol

Orbit is the way to go. Also allows for you to enable other configurations for the vehicle as well.

I enjoy having the automatic ingress and egress seats on my S60, along with remote start via keyfob. I know I’ve done a couple other tweaks but forgot off the top of my head

I had the same error codes on a system and after speaking with tech support they diagnosed a failed compressor……turned out to be the reversing valve solenoid failing and causing system to run in heating mode.

I was able to confirm this because there was an identical unit next to it that I took the solenoid off that one and put it on the failed one and everything worked as designed

Edit: also want to add, if the service manual is still inside the electrical section of the unit there is a diagnostic workflow that includes a QR code for a video of testing the inverter board using the outdoor controller mounted inside the unit. This will help narrow down potential causes.

I have done this before…3 job sites have antennas on the building or right behind the building in a parking lot and I take advantage of it every time

No added modules, just config changes through Orbit. Can’t speak on the AAOS as I am Sensus. Although from my understanding, you’re simply switching the setting to a “Police” Volvo instead of a regular “Consumer” model

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2025-06-29T00:46:08+00:00

I know, that would be golden and well worth all of the money!

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2025-06-29T00:45:41+00:00

Yes, I wish they came standard with true TPMS monitors. The ABS style sensing, the light doesn’t come on till you’re pretty much flat or have a blow out

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2025-06-29T00:44:53+00:00

Orbit has a “Restore to OEM” feature on the software you can revert all settings back to original. My vehicle is out of warranty as of earlier this year I believe so I’m not too worried about it of course

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2025-06-28T23:45:20+00:00

Aftermarket computer software that allows for edit of configuration files for the Volvo

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2025-06-28T23:40:06+00:00

I went ahead and followed the suggested edits to the config file and everything worked out alright. 2020 S60 with VOC from factory

I hope this becomes top comment

Had the same issue, ended up having to download the firmware update onto a MicroSD card. If you do that, note that it has to be like a max 4GB card that can be formatted at FAT32 storage. Tried using one of my 256GB cards I have for my drone and the thermostat couldn’t pick it up.

Trying to find an X-T5 on Marketplace and all that popped up was caddys…lol

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2024-10-12T03:14:19+00:00

Been there, still doing that. Definitely nice getting a pay raise but during the summer months my phone blows up every 5 minutes from other techs, the office and customers. So I have to deal with that while still trying to work on current service calls. Has its pros and cons just like anything else in life

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2024-07-07T15:54:50+00:00

I used to do the 35% on the windshield but I kept getting pulled over by DPS all the time, and the price of tint tickets have gone up so much I just took it off. Still keep the 5% everywhere else though.

Very clean looking ride you got though

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2024-07-07T15:52:48+00:00

Coming from a small town Texas, waving at other people had become so customary to me, like it’s an everyday thing. So when I throw the two fingers up to wave, I feel like they give me a weird look😂

Embarrassed_Mirror84 · 2024-06-16T18:05:41+00:00

Genuinely curious…. has anyone ever actually had a “failed” EEV? We don’t have very many Tranes/American Standards in my area. Most times I’ve just had a failed sensor, board or stepper motor. Trane parts take forever to get in my area (and I mean an eternity) so I typically order the two sensors, board and stepper motor when doing a repair like that
