Volvo Owners Club Forum - View Single Post - V60 replacement of *existing* DAB radio module

Hi all,

The DAB on my MY 2012 V60 SE has gone AWOL

It was previously working fine up until a few months ago. I have run a VIDA diagnostic which said that the DABM module was not responding.

I then ran a VIDA MOST ring check which came back all OK.

I have a steady 14.4v at the supply plug, and there are no shorts evident on either of the antenna cables which might have upset the DABM module. Had a peek inside and there's no sign of water ingress or anything burnt.

I noticed that there are a number of ex-vehicle DABM units (part nr.31346184) available online. I don't really want to go the aftermarket (e.g Pure DAB) route really.

Question is, does anyone know for certain whether a replacement module would have to be coded into the vehicle by a dealer?

Thanks in advance,
Robin
