Cleaned all battery connections
Cleaned all grounds, battery, chassis and firewall
Replaced boost sensor
Replaced trans speed sensor
Replaced 7th injector
Problem still persists but getting worse
No codes -
None of the above parts that you replaced are on the j1939 databus. I do this for a living....
gekko1323 and southbaydad Thank this. -
This but don’t see it.
Anyway I had to start somewhere
Do you have any additional thoughts.
I know you talked about the j1939 harness issue.
Can a crank sensor cause this.
Or a turbo actuator.
It’s frustrating that it doesn’t show any codes.
I got more time than money to have dealership spend 30 hours trying to figure it out -
I understand the reasoning for DIY on the repairs. That is the whole purpose for this forum. Datalink diagnosis,not repair, is arguably the most difficult problem that I face on a daily basis. You need to search here or google for "datalink" or "j1939" problems to get an idea of what I mean. Sometimes it is literally 20-30 hours of diagnosis (hunting) for rubbed or broken wire for a .30 cent connector to fix it. Your "TC" light being on is usually (not always) a telltale with a Volvo product. I am sorry, but there is no easy way to explain how or where to begin with you not understanding the way that the datalink works.
southbaydad Thanks this. -
I wish there was a way to read inactive codes which may help but I guess I’ll have to drive 140 miles to the nearest dealer but in dealing with them in the past I don’t care for them. Example they put a new 5 th wheel plate on my truck and told me they broke their 500.00 puller trying to get the pins out——. So they added that charge to my bill. Cuz I guess it was my fault they broke their tool. Guess if their 4000.00 air compressor they would say that was my fault if it broke when they were working on my truck.
So I don’t trust them. -

You are welcome. If I am not mistaken, there is post somewhere on the forum about a great Volvo dealer in Arizona that a respected member here raves about for their honest and good service. Search it.
southbaydad Thanks this. -
Dave in Az was the guy I posted to him and he said the Volvo dealer on 19th Ave is a very good shop.
250 miles from my house but a trip and a hotel stay might be in orderQUALITYTRUCK Thanks this.
