Downloading Software and Replacing the Control Module






Downloading software and replacing the control module

General
New software can be downloaded into the Television Module (TVM). When software is ordered the software and hardware of the vehicle are compared with Volvo's central database. If the comparison corresponds then the software is downloaded into the control module.
If the comparison between the vehicle and the Volvo central database does not correspond, the database is updated with the vehicle configuration, and then the software and any security codes (Security access code) is downloaded.
For further information regarding downloading, see: Design and Function - Downloading Software.

Replacing control module
The television module (TVM) in the S60 (11-) is located on the right side under the cargo compartment floor and in the V60 placed under the left rear window in the cargo area.
