    Default Fuel Pressure Reading

    I connected a gauge to the rail at the valve and turned the engine (since the car would not start).
    Here's my reading. What would that mean, though it's above the 40psi requirement.
    I am trying to troubleshoot the car not starting anymore.
    Months back, it hesitates when applying more acceleration, then, it starts stalling, then it gave up.

    Hook up vida, turn key on, scan car or if scanned previously pick car from list, go to "Diagnostics" menu, then "Vehicle communication", Click on the ECM icon in the left corner, choose "activations" from the center menu, click the "+" on "ecm" in the left lower window, click "fuel pump relay" at the bottom of the list and that will open in the right lower window with a start and stop button.

    There is no car attached in that screen shot so the modules are all grey and the stop and start button won't appear.

    I trust the battery is spinning the engine over. -

    So I would start with the basics.
    Codes (since you have VIDA)
    Compression
    Spark
    Fuel (you have fuel pressure, but is it gas? - cars have been towed in because of water/diesel contamination, and are the injectors opening?)
    Cam timing


    Note from previous photo there is a parameters tab next to activations. Items available on that tab can help with a no start problem. Injection time, mass air flow, coolant temp, ignition angle are all items that could help your diagnosis.

    Default Starting Issue

    Plugged in the VIDA and got this (Video).
    I had to edit the video to increase the audio volume level.
    By the way, the Turbo Valve has a thumping sound but not loud enough to hear.
    Hope I did good enough here.
    Thanks again everyone for helping me here.

    I don't see anywhere in this thread what VIDA shows for errors. Do you have any and could you post those?

    What is the history on the throttle module? 2001 had the Magnetti Marelli (sp) throttle that had a 100% failure rate - There is a test in VIDA to have the ECM move the throttle plate - but you should look (take the hard to get to hose loose) - and see if you can push the throttle open with your finger, have seen many stiff or siezed 99-01 throttle modules. And a seized throttle will keep a car from running.

    Xemodex has some diagnostic help here -

    I don't know, bought the car a little over two years ago.

    This site has a really nice chart. Though I got confused which really applies to me.
    Would their ETM cheaper than from a Volvo parts dealer, if I were to need to replace mine.?
    According to their video, their module gets programed for the customer before shipping.

    I think I finally found a video on getting to the ETM. Just curious, just to do this 'finger' test, would I
    have to remove the fan cover to get to it? I will if I have to. Just wondering if there is any other
    short-cut to check the module

    Almost all the repairs I found on my symptoms seem to tell me my ETM would be the culprit.
