VCM-U105000 - Backup battery lifetime exceeded

[Xanova]

Hey guys ! I think I found solution on yt:

"I was able to clear the message. After replacing the VCM battery, I performed a factory reset on the center display (twice). Then I disconnected the battery ground cable for about 30 minutes. After reconnecting the cable, the message disappeared."

Good Luck!

Did it work?

Eu também recebi esse código de repente, mas não estou nada animado com a ideia de ir à concessionária Volvo e gastar uma fortuna por uma simples correção de software. Eles estão cobrando 75 euros só para conectar o VIDA ao carro, sem falar em fazer qualquer coisa. E aí eu vejo essas baterias custando entre 120 e 160 euros (originais da Volvo), enquanto a solução poderia (e deveria) ser uma bateria de 20 euros e uma simples reinicialização do software.
Enfim, espero que exista uma solução que não envolva a concessionária. Detesto o fato de não podermos usar o VIDA na Europa para uso pessoal.

Send me pm ! I have solution.

It didn't for me, tried a few times, reset and battery disconnected, even the other way around, no luck.

There is an OrBit function to do the reset, no need for this battery disconnect-wait cycle.

can you share where the function is and steps? I have vida too and reading about TJ36916.1.0 but rather use orbit if I can. Thanks

I believe he is referring to ECU reset procedure, not battery life reset, PIN is still needed...

Yes need PIN, but there is a specific VCM battery reset function

Once you get the level 11 PIN:

Under ECU Tools
     Select Active Diag ECU --> VCM
Select Set PIN on the left
Select PIN Level 11
Enter PIN
Click Save

-----

After that you reset the VCM battery life:

Under ECU Tools
     Select Active Diag ECU --> VCM
Under Related Service Procedures
     Select VCM BuB - Reset Backup Battery Lifetime
Click Run Service Procedure
