TFT Retrofit Installation. Step by Step on P3 Volvo. Do it! 

I I really enjoy and appreciate your videos. Having just purchased a 2011 S80, I will be using your videos for service, cleaning and upgrading. Thank you

So nice to finally see a video from you! Great that you show everything here👍

Greetings from Bahrain. I have 2013 xc70 and I like your channel so much. I appreciate your commitment and dedication to capture DIY upgrades you have to your sweet Volvo. I had tailgate module, Trunk new module and in middle of the interior LED light installation. Thumbs up and have a great weekend.

Did it few weeks ago on my S80 2.4D 2010. Decoding the CEM took 18hrs and for some reason it did not work out at the first time so I had to do it again. Price in Vdash at the time was 199€. Very good and extremely helpful video, thank you for making it!

Nice video👍🏼 Greetins from Volvoland Sweden

Thanks for all you do. I prefer reading instructions over watching videos. But you are a massive exception!

Amazing guide, easy to follow. The best tip were the nosepicker, to put the pin into the connector. 😊

I am considering getting a 2013 t6 and I definitely would want to do this modification it looks so good

I’m wondering to see you change the suspensions on a Four-C D5. Thanks for your sharing works. It’s a real good job

Your videos are absolutely brilliant, really great video shots with mounted camera, always clear to see exactly what you are doing, with very clear instructions! Top marks! Thanks for sharing 👍

Will have to add this one to the "to do" list. Thanks mate.

Im amazed. Awesome work. A lot of time went in figuring out how to do this I suppose

Amazing video man! You help people a lot.

Great tutorial!!!! Easy to follow. Thanks.

Would love to do this on my V70 T6 AWD 2010 but I would never dare 😅 Excellent video 👌🏻👌🏻

Thanks from BRAZIL 🇧🇷!

Hi. I have seen a couple of other videos where people have just plugged in the new cluster and not changed the software and some things don’t work. Does absolutely everything work in this for you, including the eco gauge on eco mode? Do you have a video showing every function working? Thank you.

Thanks for the interesting video. I have a 2007 Volvo S80 and would like to install the newer analog display. Can I just swap that in or do I need the software for that as well?

Hello from France. I have a volvo v70 2016 model. Thank you for your videos. Do you know how to stop (shut off) the Security belt alarm please.

You are life saver mate

I have xc60, 2009. Do you know does it work on my car, so i can go to shoping parts🙂, and whether it shows when the light bulb stops working and the like, i didn't understand it best, also when the door is open does it show on display. Like your videos very much, thank you.

Great video, I am currently doing the upgrade. Can I ask that you do a video installing the driving / Spot lamps you have fitted . Regards Bob

I always watch your videos and find them very entertaining and educational. I wanted to ask you if you have installed Android car or apple car in your Volvo? Greetings from Chile 

Hi, does the Instrumend lighting adjustment still work with this cluster? driving at night with that bright screen could be tricky

Great job. Is there also information about how much petrol car take on this tft speedometer? I can see only temp..

Great video and great upgrade , but for me I’d trade my car in for newer model with this type of dash as std . However not that important to me so I’ll keep the old fashion version ! Like I say 10 out of ten for the effort and skill shown here . Another great vid by this chap

When you say "twisted wire pair, do you mean, soldering a long piece of wire to the red volvo terminal cables, and then twisting the wires coming off that down to the OBD wires? Just a bit confused there.

Nice vid. Thank you Yuri.

Hello ,I appreciate all yours videos,can you put the link where we can buy vida dice,or the one that you have?Thanks

Love this!

volvosweden ,what color of the positive wire in reverse light for xc60 2011?..thank you..

Can you confirm after conversion the TFT digital cluster duplicates the display and control of those cars equipped with radar for active cruise control and variable distance alert?

Nice video👍 i have a xc60 2012 D3 2,4 summum do i need to download all wath you did?

why do you need to remove the wires if you give the old counter back? I have already wired the old counter that is in use, I already have a new counter in the garage ... dice comes in 14 days .... but the car works without problems with these wires (xc70 MY12)

Great job. What is the product number of the cluster ? I cannot find it on the Volvo parts website.

I have a Volvo V70 B Diesel 2009. The front left headlight pop up washing has broken. I would appreciate it if you had a video showing how to replace this. Any chance please?

Hi! Do you think that this operation can be done on a 2004 Volvo V50 2.4i 170hp. In the future there will be many changes on the engine power side and I wanted a digital speedometer, you can find a variant for this upgrade. Regards!

Very Good video. I follow all the instructions and it is working but the only think is that the speedometer is in miles (like it supposed to be because I am in US) but the odometer shows in kilometers. And I ask the people from d5t5 to help me fix that, but I guess they are too busy. You probably know. Or you may tell me how can I reverse so I can put the old cluster back. I did try to go back and install the old cluster but it didn’t give me the option. Thank you. I hope you can help me. All your videos are really helpful.

Question about Volvo dice, can I also use other alternatives or it has to be the one you've got (even it is Chinese knock off) as I have seen other devices however, I am not sure if it will be good to use?

Thanks again Yuri for sharing this amazing video. I was also planning to install a digital cluster. Your video will help a lot. What's the green button on the left side of your steering House?

Hi : Thanks for all your videos 🙂 Doesn't matter here what is motor code or gearbox code ? Also I have navigation screen in my volvo but without touch screen or car play... can I upgrade to touch screen ? My from 2012 D5 THANKS 🙂

@volvosweden (or others) - do you think its possible to install TFT on P2 volvo? (S60, 2008, 2.5T, AWD, gasoline)

Nice video. The 2 wires from OBD to the display. Are they needed? Or what do they actually do? Installed the TFT display without the 2 wires and it seems to work just fine. Fuel gauge is not correct, but I haven't gone for a test drive yet.

Very nice Video! I see that CEM decoding takes some times for P3. Is that same as SPA/CMA platform. If so, is there any way to improve decoding process.

Hello my frind, great videos, I have one quetios, I have a volvo xc60 D5 2010 planning to updrade the virtual display, which year should select ? and do you have the link where to buy it

Excellent , spasiba !!

hello ... I would like to do the same in my volvo v40cc but I can't find the repair terminals. Will you know where to find those terminals with shipping to Chile? thank you very much

Can I retrofit this on a 2008 xc70? It is however in miles per hour, I'm wondering if I can install similar but in kms

Vdash seems to be the only way to add heated seats to my 2009 XC90 V8 RD.

TFT retrofit for a XC60 2011 done! 👍

Fantastic stuff ! Do yo happen to know if you can do a retrofit on a 2011 C70. Thanks again!

So i notices it says DSTC may not work...can you still turn off traction control on your car to get the tires to spin in snow? that would be the only downside for me.

Very Nice and usefull video!! Thank you!! What was the price of the software you had to buy for the TFT ?.

HI! what's that green switch on your steering column cover?

What where the steps like in the tft software? Is the old cluster the most time consuming part, that cracks the cem, is that before step 4? Does the dim code go away when complete? Is the new tft loaded after step 4, is it a long process, did u get a message once or twice about a volvo dealership and getting locked out due to using unsanctioned hardware?

Hi, I Have V60, year 2012, 1.6 diesel. How possibile to check the engine temperature in the older version? Thank you

Hello, I tried to make a tft retrofit on my 2014 s60 and after the procedure followed the tft cluster starts but display doesn't show anything but fuel gauge shift indicator. Do you know something about this issue? Have a nice day! Andrei

What gauge wire do I need? And why does it need to be twisted?

I'm interested in buying a 2007 v50 t5 ( P1 platform ) in good condition, there are some for sale here. And i want to upgrade to the digital panel on it. Its possible? Congratulations on the content Hugs from Sao Paulo Brazil

What is the green switch on the steering column?

Does it give you a total of credit that you need to add when doing this retrofit or do you have to guess?

is that twisted wire really important to work? did you try to use normal wire too? thank you

Hey, i want to upgrade my halogens to Xenon in xc70 2009. I need new bumper, headlights, light switch, leveling sensor and new harness? Coding software is required?

If you install this TFT, can a Volvo dealer or workshop clear service light, or is this only available for purchase in VDASH ?

Great Video, I was interested to see how VDASH works because I’m in the process of getting set up to use it. I just need to build a machine to use it on alongside VIDA. How about a video showing what else is possible with VDASH? I understand you can change settings and stuff. Thank You so much for the time you put into making these videos. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻⭐️

Hello, Can i Change display 5 inch for a 7 inch in Volvo V40 2013?

Question: The TFT Retrofit Speedometer fitted in my S60 2012 and worked without the additional cabels. Now I selled it to another person with a 2013 Volvo S60 and for him the middle Display stays black. Is that a known issue?

Did this to my 2012 S60-R with a 2016 S60 TFT. I just added 2 wire, i didn't need vidaduce or VDASH. Everything is working except for the power level gauge.

Did on mine, now I have DIM error no DIM detected... but the replacement works. It looks amazing but I do not know if I will keep it because I cannot reset the clock or maintenance so it tells me every time I start the car that maintenance is overdue... when it is not. 2011 S80.

is it possible to do the same installation on volvo xc60 d3 manuale 2015?

Is the adaptive cruise control working?

is there any limitations on XC60 2011 Manual D3D4 diesel engine??

Are you supposed to connect the negative clamp to the negative terminal? I've seen elsewhere that you're supposed to connect it to unpainted metal away from the positive terminal to make sure you don't cause a fire from the fumes or something. He shows it connected to the negative terminal so I'm just confused on which way is the proper way.

Hi how are you,, question is D5T5 is like vivda from volvo, can I use this Instead of Vida, I want to thank you for your help on all your post on RU-vid

For a 2013 S60, will it work by just removing the old cluster and fit the new one? Do I need to complete the whole process? Best wishes

Love the idea of the upgrade and would consider it if it were perfect afterwards. Sadly the compromises are to much for me. For the money to invest into this I'd like it to be fully functional.

Hello mate. Would this work on a C30 2011?

Do I need to do all computer stuff for make it work or can I just do all wires stuff and make it done

Does the parking heater still work after the retrofit?

If it is insinstalled in a v70 2014-2017 will work all function or remains limitations?

Wondering if this will work on the S80 V8

i have 2007 volvo s80 v8 will this application works for me ? thanks

Hello from Sweden I was wondering if you could make an Guide how to change the grill from pre facelift to the facelift grill.

Hi does anyone know what amps details etc this red cable is ? Thank you to anyone that can help 👍

What are the costs after unlocking the CEM? I know you said the price might change, but the website says nothing about this all. I am looking to do this upgrade, but don't want to do all the work and buy the unit to then discover a huge amount of money to do the upgrade

Can you do a video, how to motor optimization via vdash?

Hi, beforehand many thanks for your videos....i have a question, i did the installation but for any reason, the DSC control is out of service...i try to activate it but the check dissapear 1 second after the activation...i'd like to know if you know what is the reason of thisd issue.. i appreciate your help in this matter

Does anyone know what happens if you plug in the TFT speedo without doing the cable mod? Should it light up at all or be dead? Just received a TFT odo for my V70 2013 that lacks the two extra leads, plugged it in just to see so it works - however nothing appears, connecting the original old odo back still works fine. Will know for sure once I receive the terminals from Volvo later this week. Would have assumed that the TFT is powered the same way as the original odo, unless of course the two new leads provide extra power or some new voltages.

Hi. Any chance this can activate tft cluster in volvo v40 2016? Thanks.

I am cracking the CEM but 3d day in a row now i get a message saying unable to contact the server and then i lose 5-7 hours worth of progress because i need to start the decoding all over again from 36% where i last manually paused it. Do you know what the problem is?

Hi from Sweden

@volvosweden did you have to have the volvo dice disc in your laptop in order for the dice to work?

What DiCE unit do you use?

Will this work on a Volvo s40 2005?

Electronics related question: If I change the light switch from a 2011 S60 to one with "Auto" position (from facelift models), will the "Auto" function work out of the box, without any other wiring or software? Thank you!

Hey are you going to retrofit xenon lights?

Hello,Yuri! Been watching you from the very first xc70 video. Really helpful and i must congradulate you for your work and for all the help we’ve all been getting from your videos. I have two questions concerning the TFT retrofit thru Vdash: 1. In the Tft Dim,does the EPB light apear when activated or have you lost this function? 2. Must the Dice interface software be installed on the laptop with vida or will the unit work alone with vdash as helper software interface? I mean,if i download vdash alone on my laptop and plug the dice into the usb port,will it work ? I have the Tft cluster since 2013 (waited for xemodex to figure it out and also for vesper volvo,but vdash seems the only good solution)and i really want to install it. I hope you reply to my questions so that i can finally install the tft after 7 years of waiting. Thank you in advance and greetings from Romania!

The CEM decode on my S80 only took 3 minutes! I guess I was one of the lucky ones, haha

Hello , is it possible for my 2013 v40 ??

Great video tutorial. Is it necessary to remove the horn fuse..? If it's not removed what will happened?
