Quote:Is it in Your opinion worth the trouble to try to connect to FL 41 in an MY2020 as they do not have this as an option?
There are two things you should check.
1) Pull out the FL connector from the CEM and take a picture of the CEM connector. Make sure your CEM even has that pin 41. Some of the CEM from the factory does not even have all the PINs depending on the variant.
2) although some CEMs they have the PINs, they are disabled at the software level. In this case, not sure if Orbit has the feature to enable those for the wireless charger which can be answered easily by Power6
The real question is this.
At the end of the day if your goal is to have a wireless charger, what is the difference for you to have the oem one with all the trouble and cost than the $40 plug and play one?

Hi, Many thanks for answering.
The thing is that i bought a newer complete centerconsole with charger and supposed it would be easy to install. So i really did not need/wanted the charger. But now its there and it would be nice to have it working.
At a first glance there was some difference in the wiring in the center console but as i dug deeper it was minor changes and the connectors are the same.
- The old console had a cigaret lighter in the back and a 15 amp fuse for that, the new has a USB-C charger and because it has a 7,5 amp fuse they moved the pin and changed fuse in the fusebox.
- The old wiring had the 3 wires for paddles to the shifter, removed on the new.
- Additional wires for the charger, black direct to ground under passenger seat, red to the fusebox in passenger footwell and Lin to CEM.
@Power6, do you know if Orbit have this feature?

If you have the charger connected already now, so power red, ground black and green/white lin fl41, then I would like to see if you do get it enabled.
@Power6 would need to give you access to the program to test if you can actually enable it, if it works for you then thats great news if not then we need to research what Volvo has actually changed to make it work for 2021 onwards.
If this is a IHU issue or something else.

Can I ask anyone with a 2020 or 2021 without the wireless charger to enable it with OrBit and see if the error in config code in the IHU then is displayed?
Need to see if the ihu version are different.
