General: Turning on Trip Computer, Leeds

[jacksonarw]

Hi all,
I have just fitted the indicator stalk with the button and rotating switch for the Trip Computer. Haven't been able to get any information out of it so as I understand it the software either needs to be uploaded, or turned on.

From what I have seen/read/heard Volvo will charge anywhere from £200-£350 for this so is there an independant (or any other way) that could get this done for me, somewhere in Yorkshire/Leeds area or thereabouts ?

I work in IT so if there is a way to use a laptop and cable I'd be fine doing that too

Thanks

Adrian

Dealer or indi only or you could pay for the daily subscription then pay for the software and purchase Dice and do it yourself .

I'm looking for someone in Leeds/Wakefield/York with a DICE

Am I best going to Hutton Bro's?

Better off with a dealership. There's not many Vida owners that pay the subscription required to do that kind of thing.

I had the same problem when I wanted to activate the auto-up on the front passenger window

£22 for a 1 day VIDA subscription from Volvo Technical Information Shop

You need to go through the screens and give all the required information including a VAT number


found this on the caravan section

After calling the dealer, I was told that my car didnt even have the computer in it ! I guess they checked from the reg.

I was under the impression that all cars had the computers and that you just needed to turn it on/put software on it, and have the stick to control it ?

Anyone know for sure, or know where I can look to see if the computer is there ?

Thanks
