Volvo models this fault code applies to
Applies to the following models:
1 modelV60 (2011–)
Show models by year and engine (2)
What does this fault code mean?
On the V60, the brake control module (BCM) has found that the signal from the pressure sensor in the cut-off unit is incorrect after a certain event, for example a brake application. The fault may lie in the wiring, the connector or the sensor itself.
Possible causes
- Damaged wiring to the cut-off unit
- Faulty plug contact at the cut-off unit's pressure sensor
- Damaged pressure sensor in the cut-off unit
What you can do
- 1Read and note the code, clear it and road test the car to see whether it returns
- 2Look for damage in the wiring to the cut-off unit and in the connector at the pressure sensor
- 3Check the pressure sensor with diagnostic equipment and replace it if damaged
- 4The braking system is safety critical: do not work on the cut-off unit or brake pedal yourself; leave this to a workshop, and drive carefully until the fault is fixed
Symptoms you may notice3
