  Installing the Bi-Directional Ignition Switch.
Posted by: Bi.boosted - 02-24-2023, 11:22 AM - Forum: Retrofitting - Replies (3)

Dumb question.... Has anyone retrofitted the bidirectional start switch to a car that hd the monodireftional start switch? 

I saw the config and was wondering if it worked out. I have my eye on an XC90 but it's got the single throw ignition switch. And I really like being able to turn both directions. 

I also noticed it's pretty universal and separate from the whole shifter plate. They're pretty inexpensive on ebay. 

I also noticed there were a few weird 2021s where they lost the drive mode selector, but still had sensus.
There's an option to activate the drive mode switch.

  Supposed "Autopilot/Handsfree Highway Assist/Lane Change asssist” etc.
Posted by: Bi.boosted - 02-24-2023, 11:06 AM - Forum: Safety - Replies (18)

So after playing with several settings and trying to get it to change lanes on its own it doesn't do more than pilot assist. Granted, I think I did see that the warning for apply steering went away, the efficacy of lane keeping with pilot assist went way down. Like it bounced around in the lane a lot more and was more unsure of itself. 

After a few hours and a half tank of gas driving around trying to make sure I wasn't tweaking, I can safely say I'm going to leave pilot assist active and not try any of the other autonomous driving features. I haven't figured out the correct combination to get them to truly enable autonomous driving and other options activated just sort of degrade the performance of the system.

Has anyone had success with these?

  SCL remove - SOLVED
Posted by: R1maS - 02-23-2023, 02:05 PM - Forum: Misc - Replies (11)

Hi!
Does anyone tried to remove steering column lock? US cars usually do not have it, European - do.

There's variant code
067 STEERING COLUMN LOCK 
"01 Without Steering Column Lock
02 With Steering Column Lock variant 1
03 With Steering Column Lock variant 2"

Tried SL01 - without steering column lock.  DTC about SCL disappeared, but car won't start.

BTW, there are different descriptions for SL:  
- Above SL02 is as " With Steering Column Lock variant 1 ", but VIDA shows SL02 as "SL02 STEER. COLUMN LOCK/KEY WARNING Without steering column lock, Key warning enabled". 
- SL03 is as "03 With Steering Column Lock variant 2", but VIDA on Variant attributes has "SL03 STEER. COLUMN LOCK/KEY WARNING With steering column lock, Key warning disabled"

  OrBit Beta v0.3.1 release notes
Posted by: Power6 - 02-22-2023, 03:39 PM - Forum: Releases - Replies (4)

The first official OrBit update is out. The latest version of OrBit will now always be downloaded from:  https://spaycetech.azurewebsites.net/orb...e/download

New features:

"DID" Reading - Read data from ECUs with dropdown menu of hundreds of ECU data fields, on ECU Tools tab

Usage Mode Control - OrBit now switches to Active mode when needed, you do not need to manually set the car in "Active" mode when connecting OrBit

PH/EV contactor control - OrBit automatically opens high voltage battery contactors when programming on  PHEV and EV models (* except pre-2020 T8 models, coming soon)

Automatic ABS Clear Config - When changing known config items that need "ABS Clear Config" run, OrBit automatically runs it in post-programming step

Update Notifications - OrBit will now notify you when starting the application that an updated version is available and prompt to download the installer.

Fixes and Improvements:
ECU Reset improved (asynchronous command), reconnect to car when VCM/TCAM gateway is reset
Write Config change confirmation now scrollable report window (won't go off screen)
Faster ECU checks, reduced flashing/config programming time
Added additional ECU info to databases
ECU addresses replaced with names displayed in most cases for easier self troubleshooting (misbehaving ECUs)
More frequent log upload for better support
General improvements to programming process reliability
CARCFG(Variant codes) backup saved when config write
General Improvements to smooth connecting a "new" car, creating profile and set PIN(s)

Bug fix: "license not found" when capital letters in registered account email address
Bug fix: flashing fail when Config Logic has been backed up from the car
Bug fix: ABS Clear Config "fail" on cars with BCM2
Bug fix: flashing fail due to engine status check on some models
Bug fix: flashing fail due to PXML or PXMR ECU not responding
Bug fix: Load/Save settings disabled when car not connected (unreliable when disconnected)

Known Issues:
DID reading "results" interpretation may be incorrect. Most data fields are working, but not all "data types" are implemented correctly yet (ex: reading "part number" information from ECUs) work is ongoing to for future updates to get to 100%.

Pre-2020 T8 will fail to flash if HV Battery contactors are not in "open" state. I am working on discovering the contactor control process for these models, to add to next update

  103 Exterior Lights Signature and 104 Turn Signal Type
Posted by: kraeburn - 02-17-2023, 04:09 PM - Forum: Lights - Replies (6)

Stock setting is 02 (Basic illumination only on/off) but there are 5 other illumination configs.

Just curious what this might do

Also 104 Turn Signal Type--it give an option for sequential.  Since I am not aware of Volvo changing the turns to be sequential, perhaps the stock head/taillights are capable?  Assuming it work like some other brands where the light "sweeps" on rather than completely on/off at once.

Anyone mess with these yet?

  496--Coolant level Indication
Posted by: kraeburn - 02-17-2023, 04:00 PM - Forum: Engine / Transmission - Replies (4)

Anyone mess with this?

Does it give a display to indicate coolant temp?  Could maybe be something having to do with the hybrid batteries too, not sure.

  Active high beams for us non-bendy folk
Posted by: kraeburn - 02-17-2023, 03:59 PM - Forum: Lights - Replies (14)

Starting another thread to check and see what other folks are using for settings if you don't have the bendy headlights.

Currently at 
106  09 LED without bending lights
109  03 AHB1 High beam in small village
256  01 without bending lights

Have some long drives into Vermont and upstate NY this weekend so it is a perfect time to try new settings.  I've had this feature before so I know what it is supposed to be like and I have seen zero active light functionality.  If anything, the auto high beams seem less aggressive than before--particularly driving around neighborhoods where there may be some amount of ambient light.

Do I need to enable anything in Sensus?
Are my setting incorrect?
Am I expecting too much with the limited non-bendy lights?

Wink Oil Level in MM
Posted by: CharcoV90 - 02-14-2023, 11:32 AM - Forum: Misc - Replies (6)

Hi All. 
Does anyone know what the oil level on the OrBit screen should be? 
Finding conflicting information online. Mine is showing 44mm. 
Would be great to know what the Minimum and Maximum are in MM. 

Only got hooked up to OrBit yesterday and it is great. Enjoying my Polestar Optimised gear changes today. 

All the Best
