Hello,
My V60 T8 Recharge recently got diagnosed with a bad cell/module inside of the hybrid battery pack.
The quote from volvo to fix this is quite harrowing at 5000€ ish.
I wanted to see if any sort of DIY would be possible and if so what route to take.
I concidered buying a working battery from a scrapyard/wrecker here in Sweden or in Norway, There seem to be quite a few to pick from.
Could I get a battery with the same part.no in working condition and swap my BECM into it? would that be plug/play or would I need to do any other work to get it working?
Alternatively Load the software on to the BECM in that 2nd hand batterypack, or would I need a new BECM from volvo anyway?
If those are not an option could I swap the bad module in my pack for a good one out of another pack?
If so, would I be okay verifying the battery voltages across all of the modules only using common meassuring tools such as a multimeter?
I guess I'm looking for any sort of knowledge or advice on the matter!
All help is highly appreciated! ?
