Issue: Cutting Out when Driving
Car cut out when driving – everyhting shut down Steering got incredibly heavy as did brakes, all lights on dash lit up and car wouldn’t start.
I only had icarsoft scanner – error code just said Fuel system – Cleared the code , turned the ignition off statretd the car again and it started fine. Tried to drive slowly forward and cut out again. Had a spare Bosch Fuel filter so fitted it. manaaged to get home however it cut out on the way (cleared codes again and it started ok) . The car felt off on the drive home
Took car for a drive with Vida plugged in and managed to replicate the fault

Looked up the fault code on vida and fault trace
ECM-2400 Fuel system – Signal too high
For a signal too high possible sources were
- Short circuit to voltage on the injection valves
- Short circuit to voltage internally in the ECM
- Damaged injection valves
- Internal fault in the ECM
Vida suggests checking components and wiring – i don’t have a break ut box how so how would i do this ?
Vida also suggest doing a Injector test – Results are as follows
ECM – Engine Speed cylinder 1 = 701 r/min
ECM – Engine Speed cylinder 2 = 705 r/min
ECM – Engine Speed cylinder 3 = 699 r/min
ECM – Engine Speed cylinder 4 = 697 r/min
ECM – Engine Speed cylinder 5 = 696 r/min
MAX MIN
Fuel Quantity correction cylinder 1 0.15 0
Fuel Quantity correction cylinder 2 -0.05 -0.54
Fuel Quantity correction cylinder 3 -0.06 -0.28
Fuel Quantity correction cylinder 4 0.86 0.39
Fuel Quantity correction cylinder 5 -0.17 -0.35
Are these values ok ?
Has anyone experienced similar issues?
I’ve ordered a genuine Volvo Fuel filter ?
Could a sensor be confusing the ECM ?
Do i need a new fuel pump ?
Do i need to send off to get the ECM repaired /cloned ?
Are there any other tests i can do to try and isolate the issue ?
