Signal Specification

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2009 Volvo S60, 2008 Volvo S60, 2007 Volvo S60, 2006 Volvo S60, and 2005 Volvo S60. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

General 

All values contained below are between the relevant terminal and signal ground, unless otherwise indicated in brackets.

NOTE: It is important to connect the breakout box and check the ground terminals before taking readings.
U= DC voltage in volts (V) UAC = AC voltage in volts (V)
Ubat = Battery voltage (V) f = Frequency in Hertz (Hz)
Ulow = Voltage approximately 0 V t = Time in second(s)
