Volvo models this fault code applies to
Applies to the following models:
9 modelsS60 (2011–), S80 (2007–), V40 (2013–), V40 Cross Country (2013–), V60 (2011–), V60 Cross Country (2015–), V70 (2008–), XC60 (2009–), XC70 (2008–)
What does this fault code mean?
The supplemental restraint system module (SRS) measures the resistance in the circuit to the driver's adaptive force limiter. The code is stored when the resistance is too low and the incorrect value has persisted for a while. The fault may be in the wiring, in the connections or in the force limiter itself.
Possible causes
- Short circuit in the wiring
- Short circuit in the connections
- Short circuit in the driver's adaptive force limiter (igniter section reads too little resistance)
What you can do
- 1Read and note the code, clear it, and see whether it returns
- 2Have a workshop check the connections between the module and the adaptive force limiter
- 3Have a workshop check that the wires in the circuit are not shorted to each other
- 4Have a workshop replace the adaptive force limiter if it is faulty
- 5Do not work on the airbag system yourself; have a workshop check it
Symptoms you may notice3
- The SRS warning light comes on or behaves abnormally
- An SRS warning message is shown
- A warning symbol and a text message are shown
