Are these units (Headunit / ICM ) plug and play or do they have to be programmed by the dealer if purchased used? i have an 'Volvo v70, 2012. Around a year ago the radio and infotainment system started to fail. and wondering if the problem is the ICM unit? . I was recently given the car and I have started to diagnose and try to fix this issue. The symptoms of this issue are the screen for the infotainment system not working but its turn on and hanging on and on, all of the lower lights and buttons work such as the heated seats and or the defroster and fan control. They all work . Up till this point when I turned the car on I would receive no light from the screen and none of the audio buttons such as FM, AM, and or volume not either, about 6 mounts ago the rear park sensor failed to show on screen. grateful for every answers

Can you repair the CEM, program them as well as sell new ones? Thx. My 2004 Volvo is possessed with items such as the sunroof opening on it's own.

Are these units (ICM Display Screen Unit) plug and play or do they have to be programmed by the dealer if purchased used?

I found that when I removed my ICM in that manner, I triggered a fault code and had to have it reset by a mechanic. I would recommend moving the gear selector back to Park, then turning off and removing the key and waiting five minutes, before disconnecting any of the ICM cables.

Hi, how could I change the radio wires for my volvoxc90 2007? Thanks

Can the car be safely driven without the ICM while I mail in my unit for repair? I took it out last night and plugged the climate control back in but the air conditioning won't turn on and the power windows won't operate. That's just what I noticed isn't working without the ICM installed.

Hello Xemodex, I got here while looking for answers, because today they brought a 2006 XC90 for me to buy, but the radio comes on and goes off immediately. Seems the ICM has to be changed. How can I get the ICM across to you (if I end up buying the car) and how much will it cost me to fix it with you guys. Thanks for posting this video - it gave me hope that I can still go for the car afterall.

If I'm having problems with my radio the ICM can I just buy an aftermarket radio ?

[alvinmiller]

Why can’t you just replace the whole unit with a used unit instead of sending the ICM out for repair and reinstalling it

[michaelhaiden]

If you don't unhook the battery you get all kinds of issues
