Foreword
The descriptions and service procedures contained in this manual are based on designs
and methods studies carried out up to April 2005.
The products are under continuous development. Vehicles and components produced
after the above date may therefore have different specifications and repair methods.
When this is judged to have a significant bearing on this manual, supplementary service
bulletins will be issued to cover the changes.
The new edition of this manual will update the changes.

In service procedures where the title incorporates an operation number, this is a
reference to V.S.T. (Volvo Standard Times).
Service procedures which do not include an operation number in the title are for general
information and no reference is made to V.S.T.
The following levels of observations, cautions and warnings are used in this Service
Documentation:
Note: Indicates a procedure, practice, or condition that must be followed in order to have
the vehicle or component function in the manner intended.
Caution: Indicates an unsafe practice where damage to the product could occur.
Warning: Indicates an unsafe practice where personal injury or severe damage to the
product could occur.

MID 216 PSID 200 J1939 Data link interruption, engine ECU
General information
The control units share important information via the SAE
J1939 CAN. If a control unit is missing a message from
another control unit this fault code is used to indicate the
control unit that is expected to transmit the message via
the SAE J1939 CAN.
For further information regarding the SAE J1939 CAN,

see service information group 0, “Vehicle Electronics”
Note: The fault codes is only stored if the message

disappears during the operating cycle. The message
must have been sent earlier during that operating cycle.
The control unit automatically configures itself to the
control units available in the vehicle.
