Hello

I programmed a new key to my XC40. Since it was in for service software were updated. Now I both keys trigger the same driver profile and I can’t change it? I save the other profile to the other key but next time it reverts back to the wrong profile.

Any ideas?

Which options to permanent auto brake when reverse? (which now I have to manually disable it every time I reverse.) C40 2023

Bonjour à tous,

Je souhaitais reconfigurer ma S90 T8 de 2024 après une visite chez le concessionnaire.

Lors de la tentative de reprogrammation du compteur kilométrique avec Orbit, un défaut de suspension est apparu et je ne parviens pas à l'effacer. L'étalonnage est impossible car le véhicule est en mode défaut.

Avez-vous une solution ?

Merci

My IHU and CSD are dead, I have to take of to Volvo tommorow as the heater is not working in a Canadian winter but I cannot recover to OEM without connection, will I get blacklisted?

Hi, 

I know this is not directly related to Orbit, but since someone here might have knowledge about this, I decided to ask anyway.

Does anyone know about disabling the EGR? Is it possible to do it with software? What about simply blocking it off at both ends?

As I understand it, the EGR system has two sensors, one before and one after the EGR valve, which only monitor how much exhaust gas flows through the EGR valve. If the EGR were blocked before this point (where it branches off from the exhaust) and also blocked at the other end near the intake manifold, would this be sufficient? In that case, would it be unnecessary to disable the EGR via software as well?

I’m aware of the difficulties caused by this newer engine control module (ECM). As far as I know, there currently isn’t anyone in the world who can create engine tuning/optimization software for these cars. Isn’t that correct?

I know I can’t activate developer mode on AAOS using the typical “tap the version 10 times” but I was wondering this there’s a way to activate it using Orbit?

I know the IHU has been a black box for these cars. But I was hoping someone has made any kind of headway figuring them out. 

My IHU is annoying since it’s a ‘21 model, so it’s the oldest of the intel atom chips. It acts weird, overheats a lot, and just generally sucks. Anything I can do to try to make it better is what I’m after.

I have a ‘21 xc40 recharge if that’s of any value.

Hello! I have been trying to get LTE working via my personal SIM card but it seems stuck on 2G (Edge) constantly. The SIM card is definitely LTE/4G as i tested it on another device and it performs as expected there. However, the car mobile modem does not go beyond 2G. 

I checked the VCM parameter ‘Mobile connectivity type’ where it indicates “Edge” and the connection speed is super slow while doing anything via IHU or car’s wifi hotspot. The VCM seems to be the LTE VCM (photo of a label attached) so I expect that the device itself have the needed capabilities. I also experimented with Telematics configuration setting and shifted from ‘With Telematic module’ to ‘With Telematic Module ROW LTE’ but it did not solve the problem.

Did any of you had such issue? Anyone managed to get the LTE mobile connection running on their personal SIM with similar VCMs?

Hello,
would like to request to add a service function for DEM, awd owners, for haldex adaptation and bleed procedures. Those are currently only available in Vida, but we cannot have vida in EU  . Would highly appreciate if this procedure could be added.

OrBit 1.2.0 is released! As we have done before, the list of improvements we wanted to make was ambitious, and that made for a long development cycle. But I think there is something for everyone in this OrBit update! It will not be possible to cover the smallest changes and bug fixes, but I will cover the major updates and the important details. 

(Latest version of OrBit can always be downloaded here: https://app.spaycetech.com/orbitupdate/download) The "update notification" in OrBit will be sent later, but you can download the updated install right away from the link.


New features:

Refreshed UI - The OrBit interface looks familiar, but has been nearly completely overhauled. OrBit main window is now responsive design, you can finally resize OrBit and expand the Configurator table! Features and buttons have been re-arranged for easier use, Config Wizard redesigned easier to browse, DIDs and Service Procedures list redesigned to be easier to browse. 

Updated car info display - Live Car Status info is displayed at bottom right: current Usage Mode, 12V battery volts and SoC (State of Charge). You can keep an eye on your 12V battery while working on the car in OrBit. Shortcuts tab display of ICE engine oil level, 12V battery and High or Medium battery state display are separated to show all applicable info for the connected car. 

Car Network display - Car Network toplogy view can be opened from the main Shortcuts tab to show an overview diagram of the car network with modules shown. The modules shown are color coded grey/red/yellow/green by the state of the modules from the current profile update readout of the car. Modules can be clicked to bring up the display of current DTCs and DTC History. 

New DTC view - DTC report is now color coded for the DTC status to match status colors (yellow, red, grey) in Volvo VIDA. The report can be filtered by module list displayed by status, you can easily see which modules have DTCs. The report can be exported to PDF.

New Service tab tools - FLC2 Safety Camera Calibration is added for AAOS cars. DPF Regeneration is added for diesel vehicles, MVBM/48V tools are added for trobuleshooting and resolving issues with MHEV (mild hybrid) vehicles. SCL Programming is added to adopt new SCL module to car equipped with SCL (Steering Column Lock). Service Procedures catalog display is revised to be easier to browse and run procedures.

ECU Tools tab improved display - Data IDs (DIDs) display is improved, easier to browse and click directly on items to read from the car. Related Service Procedures view is similarly revised to be easier to view and run procedures filtered to the current selected module. 

NEW Module specific tools - HCM Tools added for headlight and module replacement, this new automated tool reads the HCMs in the car and guides the user through correcting the configured "side" of used modules installed, and write headlight codes config to the HCMs. All HCMs are now supported: LED, Pixel and Matrix lights. TRM Load will load software to new TRM (TRailer Module) to support tow bar/hitch installs. (ECM Loading/adoption is in beta currently, available as needed, if you need to replace an ECM with a new part, you can reach out to support we can help!)

NEW Software Flash/Module Reload - Software Flashing is completely new. Supports all Volvo software flashing scenarios for all module types, multiple softwares can be queued and flashed to the module in a single job. Software flashes can be loaded from a Package File provided by us. For those that need software to load a module, we can now offer software packages on request to reload and update modules with OrBit. Information to get a quote for software reloads is included in the dialog. 

NEW Config Wizard redesigned - Easier to find settings by category, expanded with new settings added and tracking for changes shown as you browse and choose settings. New settings added to the Wizard: Auto Start/Stop, lock/alarm settings, CarPlay/Android Auto, Navigation etc. Config "rules" updated and revised to enable/disable applicable settings specific to the connected car. 

New logo - New OrBit logo is used on app shortcut, task bar icon etc.

Progress Bar - Most common functions use the new progress bar display in OrBit to show progress state through a procedure running on the car. 

Configurator - Unchanged but the table now resizes with the OrBit window.



Updated Features:

Key Programming updated - OrBit now backs up the key fob information before pairing or erasing key fobs. Previous change can be rolled back if problems are encountered in the key programming process. Care Key Disable can now be run to set all paired keys as normal key fobs (no restrictions). This is the same process used by Volvo dealer to disable Care Key for customers, it is a one time process that does not require config change. A graphic is now included in the dialog to show the proper key placement spot for key fob programming, specific to the connected car model.

PIN Save updated - Supports saving the new generation security access 64 character PINs for modules. Current saved PIN from the car profile can now be viewed, the saved PIN is displayed in the dialog for the module and level. 

Full support up through 2026 models - OrBit handles all aspects of updates/changes made to modules and security in the cars for the latest model years SPA/CMA platform cars.



Improvements and Fixes:

Software flashing  - Capability and reliabiltiy of flashing software to modules is improved with a nearly complete overhaul of software flashing. PBL and SBL type flashing, digitally signed software signature checking, new generation security PINs are all supported with software flashing. Progress display is improved with the potential long wait time for flashing large softwares and signature checks. Many improvements have been made to deal with troublesome cars and modules where it is possible for a diagnostic tool to overcome the issues.

Many bug fixes for less common issues - Updates made to deal with profile corruption, modules not responding, partially functional cars smoothly without requiring a support case to resolve. 48V battery SoC is now correct for all cars, invalid odometer display for some cars is fixed, VGM PIN required messages for Service Procedures that don't need a VGM PIN are resolved. Suspension mode display for cars with electronic shocks but without air springs is fixed.

Various bug fixes and reliability improvments  - If Volvo can put this in their release notes, so can I!
