  2023 XC40 Recharge Parameters
Posted by: moosepants - Yesterday, 07:47 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (2)

Hello!  I've got a couple interests in using Orbit to tinker with.  Adaptive cruise and any performance options available to me.  I want to set my expectations and was wondering if someone had a list of available parameters for my year/ model.   I'm understanding Orbit will let me modify settings already available on the car, correct?  For instance, if there's a performance upgrade available in the 2024 model, I may not be able to use it on a '23.  Thanks!

  XC40 Wiring Explorer mini app
Posted by: iGeorge3 - 08-11-2026, 12:16 AM - Forum: Misc - Replies (6)

Hi everyone,

I’ve put together a small interactive Volvo XC40 wiring-diagram explorer and thought it might be useful to share here.
   

It lets you click components, connectors, wires, and pins; trace branches or full geometry; show wire colours; and follow ordered routes through connectors. It’s still a public preview, so I’d really appreciate feedback, especially if you find an incorrect pin, route, colour, or missing branch.

I should be transparent: I have limited coding experience, and this was built entirely with Codex. I hope it can still be useful for troubleshooting and understanding the XC40 wiring diagrams.
I built it mainly because I had to go from Peugeot/citroën/DS drawings which were fully interactive in Servicebox to PDF diagrams for my XC40, and I wanted something more interacttive for my projects.

Download / source page: https://github.com/igeorge39/XC40-Wiring-Explorer

Windows users only need to download and run the EXE, no Python or other installation is needed. Please read the README before sharing further, as the included wiring document has its own copyright/distribution notice.

Thanks, and I’d love to hear what people think.

  Auto-high beam change to EU/RoW doesn't seem to be retained
Posted by: gentryvalley - 08-10-2026, 02:05 PM - Forum: Lights - No Replies

Hello, new user here of Orbit and liking the capabilities it opens up for my 26 XC60 T8 Hybrid.  I'm in the US and wanting to get the Auto-High Beam to remain active after each restart so long as I have turned the ring to engage it.  However, after setting it to EU/RoW through the Orbit software and engaging the feature via the ring rotation, it is not indicating it is still engaged after I restart the car.  I used the programming wizard for this config change and everything indicated it completed programming correctly.  Can someone please give some feedback on this process?  Maybe the visual indication on the dash panel is now irrelevant as I haven't tried it out yet after dark but thinking it is not setting the config like it should be.  TIA.

  Incorrect VGM PIN error when programming? <SOLVED>
Posted by: Gaboose - 08-08-2026, 05:45 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (1)

Hi - I'm using OrBit with a Polestar 2 on the very latest version of its OTA software (5.1.17, which doesn't even appear on the manufacturer's software info page yet -- though it deployed OTA to the car two weeks ago).  Shortly after that update, I was able to connect with OrBit and push some headlight configuration changes to the car.  Today, though, I tried again as I wanted to change the version of adaptive that I had chosen.  I was able to connect and get basic car info (e.g., battery SOH, 12V charge, and current config), but when I tried to push a change to the car I got a "VGM PIN incorrect" error repeatedly, and could not progress.  I verified that OrBit is still set up with the same PINs as I had initially put in for the VIN.  Anybody know what could be going wrong and anything I could do to fix it?

<UPDATE> I had been running OrBit continuously on the ancient laptop I use for this sole purpose.  Closing the app and reopening it triggered a software update check.  After installing the latest version of OrBit, everything worked.

  Consequences of visiting the dealer without Restore OEM — software-only config change
Posted by: bubinatar - 08-03-2026, 10:56 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (3)

Apologies if this has been asked before — I searched but couldn't find a clear, definitive answer.
My situation: I'm only interested in software config changes (Start/Stop memory, Pilot Assist, that kind of thing). No hardware retrofits, no module firmware uploads — purely toggling config settings that the car already supports. Sensus ,2020 model.

Question 1: Suppose for whatever reason I don't get around to doing Restore OEM before the car goes to an authorised Volvo dealer — I forget, or the car goes in unexpectedly. What actually happens?
Do I get locked out on Volvo's side, or do my settings just get overwritten during their software update and that's the end of it?
Question 2: If a lock-out is a real thing — what does it actually mean in practice?

  • What exactly stops working? Only future dealer/VIDA operations, or OTA updates and connected services too?
  • Is it reversible? What's the procedure?
  • Does it cost anything, and roughly how much?
  • Is it flagged against the VIN permanently, or does it clear once the config matches again?
I'm in Poland, so if dealer handling differs by market, experience from PL or nearby EU countries would be especially useful.
Thanks in advance.

  Replacing height sensors on 2018 xc90…will this calibrate?
Posted by: gotwood - 08-02-2026, 09:47 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - No Replies

Ball sockets on the front right and left height sensor arms seized up and the arms detached from the sensor spindles.
  I have no way to reattach the arms as i don’t know where the arms should be attached on the spindles rotational angle.
So if i buy new arms will this software work to calibrate the voltages output from the sensors?

Right now i turned the spindles to say it was at highest height so it bleed out the air

  Does “Restore OEM” wipe a dealer-installed Polestar Engineered Optimization?
Posted by: bubinatar - 08-02-2026, 09:11 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (3)

Hi all,

I’m about to buy an OrBit subscription, but there’s one thing I need to clear up first, because it could be an expensive mistake for me.

Background: I bought a used S60 (3rd gen,).After buying it I had the Polestar Engineered Optimization installed at the Volvo dealer — the official paid one, not a config activation. It cost real money, so losing it is not an option.

My question: if I use OrBit to change some settings and then hit Restore OEM before a dealer service visit, does the dealer-installed Polestar optimization survive that reset?

What makes me unsure is that OrBit itself exposes “Polestar optimisation” as a config item, and as I understand it Restore OEM doesn’t write back a per-car backup — it restores the standard OEM config logic. So if any part of the Polestar activation lives in that config layer rather than purely in the ECM/TCM software, I assume a reset could switch it off. Is that correct, or is the dealer version a genuine ECM/TCM reflash that Restore OEM never touches?

  High Volt Battery limitations
Posted by: Rockknight - 08-02-2026, 06:59 PM - Forum: Misc - No Replies

Hi guys,

is there a way to change the battery limitations?
E.g. when the charging level of the high volt battery reaches 20% it shows me 0% left and it's empty , raven if there are 20% left 
Same in the other direction, when I load the battery, I'm only able to load it to 90% while tha car says that it is fully loaded.

I can read the real values via the odbc soced. 
Is there not way with orbit to change this limitations to get mor out of my battery?
For example 10%-95% for real usage?

Cheers
