Monitoring of the wheel brakes

If the braking effect on a wheel is weaker than on the
other wheels, the "CHECK" lamp lights and a symbol
is shown on the display. You will feel no difference in
the braking power since the other wheels will brake
harder instead. However a fault code is stored in the
system and a Volvo service station should examine the
braking system.

High brake temperature warning

If the brakes start to overheat, the "CHECK" lamp
lights and a symbol is shown in the display. The brake
pedal must be pressed harder to obtain the same
braking power as before.

Resetting fault codes

If the EBS sets a fault code, the fault code cannot be
reset in the same way as other fault codes. It must be
done in this way instead:
Conditions:
• Vehicle stationary.
The pneumatic system is filled, to at least 10 bar
pressure.
• The parking brake shall not be set if there is a fault
on the trailer modulator.
Execution:
1
Turn off the ignition so that the control unit is
reset. Wait at least five seconds. During this time,
the brake shall not be applied!
2
Switch ignition on.
3
Wait at least fifteen seconds. During this time,
the vehicle must be stationary without the foot
Warning symbol for poor braking
effect.
Warning symbol for high brake
temperature.
Note!
See the information in the instrument
display.
