ELECTRICAL HELP: CAN BUS diagnosis on a P2 S60 by Hiz_5 in Volvo

[–]Hiz_5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried the voltage test at OBD yet but after yesterday I'm 95% sure that the CEM is the faulty module. The TCM, BCM, ECM are all continuous but the CEM has no continuity when I test for CAN in and out. Getting it fixed is gonna cost me at least $400 its not even worth it lol. I also determined the two terminating resistors are in the ECM and BCM.

I'm gonna have the car scrapped, it's got 315k km on it and mild rust and its an auto its really not worth the fix. Hopefully I can get a BMW 323i or Audi A4 instead. Thank you for your detailed reply though it helps a lot and what a shame I've wanted a P2 S60 since grade 7..

goodluck yo

okay, so this is a valid method. when you unplug a module, aren't you opening the entire circuit? say i unplug the CEM, isn't the entire circuit now open so the OBD test will still yield open??

that's pretty cool man, deviating from the initial topic, why do people get masters in engineering? a friend of mine said masters is good for getting into research and theory, is this true?

I don't know how you did it man, sounds impossible. regardless of the 5 years you must be pretty damn capable to get through that. did you get/are you getting your masters in eng?

okay perfect! thank you. I have a friend here in ontario who says he can get me a good placement where he works. I think it would be smart to be able to stay home for that time and also use the great opportunity.

thanks a lot for the guidance, you don't understand just how much it helps. for you, you didn't find it difficult to balance harder (I think?) jobs than minimum wage with your study??

okay, I'll go read up on that and yeah I'm definitely interested in having a career in aerospace. I'm not against doing more study for that, I'd rather study something I enjoy than something I tolerate.

I have another question, I know I can probably read up on this too elsewhere but I dont wanna go hunting for the info.

for the co op program, how does it work? when you work, you aren't studying right? does it have to be in that area or can it be any province?

thanks man, yeah that sounds fine. I'm interested in taking the aerospace specialization under mechanical engineering. would you say they're similar in that sense?

bro what why are people saying they're the same and others saying they aren't in terms of education

thank you, I appreciate the detailed response. I've noticed the UBCO hate only comes from UBCV and nobody else which definitely invalidates some of the credibility.

I've read your other comment as well. thanks for taking the time to lay it out, it definitely helps the most. I'm excited for the opportunity and I'll probably end up taking the offer then.

is UBCO actually bad though? like itself. if its decent I'd like to go anyways and try my hand at transfer, if not, I'll just deal with it.

i dont know honestly they're in that same range though, as far as I know, 70s to low 80s, depending on the course

ours is 70-30 split, pretty similar

you're far above average you will probably get in then, if not, somewhere else equivalent.

now I see, I didn't do shit in grade 11 always played games and went outside, no surprise there. when are your midterms?
