VOLVO VIDA DICE 2014D Error “VIDA NOT OK” Solution

Volvo Vida Dice during installation I get this sign that "VIDA NOT OK" , so it feels that the installation process ends there and doesn´t install the software.

The solution:

With lots of help from eobdtool.co.uk engineer, I've actually managed to get my VIDA working!

1. To do this I went into Windows START button/ programs/ Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2/ Configuration Tools/ SQL Configuration Manager...(left click on it to open)

In the left hand pane left click on 'SQL Server Services'.
In the right hand pane you need to make sure that 'SQL server (SQLEXPRESS)' and 'SQL Server (VIDA)' are both set to 'automatic'.

2. Reboot.
3. Go back into 'Add/remove programmes' and uninstall VIDA only! Do not uninstall anything else. Its about 1.5GB from memory.

4. You must go into 'My computer', Local disc (C:\), and delete the folder named VIDA.
Open 'program files' folder and delete the two folders 'Volvo' and 'Volvo cars'.

6. Reboot.

7. Reinstall VIDA 2014Dusing the normal 'all in one' option. (Be patient), mine took 45 minutes.

8. You should get the VCC Intranet / VCC Internet /Internet options come up. Select Internet and then let it carry on installing.

9. Reboot and then install the 'crack' without changes the field.
Its a dos programme so you will just see a couple of DOS windows open and close.

I did all of the above in that order and it worked for me after over 8 months of pissing about trying to get this sodding software working.
Now I only hope my DICE unitstill works!

All of the above was done after a unsuccessful installation with the 'VIDA NOT OK' message after installing.

Use Volvo Vida Dice to Reset Volvo Climate Control Module Problem

Here share a case about Vida Dice solve Volvo A/C control module problem.

Situation: A/C - Vent Temperature Cycles From Hot to Cold

NO: 87-54

DATE: 11-30-2005

MODEL: S60, S80, V70, XC70, XC90

MY: MY05 MY06

SUBJECT: Temperature Coming Out of the Climate Vents may Start to Cycle from Max Hot Back to Full Cold When Max Hot is Requested.

REFERENCE: Volvo VIDA Dice

This Tech-net note supersedes the previous 87-54 dated 11-02-2005. Please update your files.

DESCRIPTION:

If the temperature knobs are turned to max hot, the temperature coming out of the climate vents may start to cycle from max hot back to full cold with a period of 4-15 seconds. No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are stored.

The number of steps on a temperature Damper Motor Module (DMM) may have increased from factory settings, causing the affected DMM to set a "not calibrated" flag to the Climate Control Module (CCM). This causes the climate system to self-calibrate over and over again resulting in the cycling temperature from the vents.

VEHICLES AFFECTED:

SERVICE METHOD:

The above mentioned symptom could be solved by a recalibration of the CCM.

For affected vehicles that are still in retailer stock, upgrade the cars during CPS or prior to customer delivery following the service method in VIDA:

1. Erase CCM DTCs.

2. Perform calibration of the CCM as follows:

- Select the "Diagnostics" tab followed by the "Vehicle communication" tab.

- Click the CCM box.

- Select the "Advanced" tab.

- Click "Checking LIN bus".

- Click "No" if no Damper Motor Module (DMM) has been replaced.

- Read and follow the instructions (to the right) carefully and click the VCT2000 symbol.

- Click the "Start" button (left on screen tool).

- Wait until status "Completed" is shown on the screen tool.

- Regardless of DTCs or no DTCs it is now OK to click the "Hide" button to continue.

- Click the "Continue" button to proceed.

3. Perform functional check of the climate system as follows:

- Start engine.

- Turn FAN speed to MAX.

- Select DEMIST and check airflow to windscreen.

- Select FLOOR and check airflow to floor.

- Select VENT and check airflow to dashboard vents.

- Turn to MAX COLD and check cold air from dashboard vents left and right.

- Turn to MAX HOT and check hot air from dashboard vents left and right.

- Turn temperature and fan speed controls to midrange.

- Select Recirculation and check difference in airflow noise in climate system.

- Switch off Recirculation and check difference in airflow noise in climate system.

4. Use VIDA to read CCM DTCs.

5. If CCM DTCs are present repeat step 1 to 4. If CCM DTCs are persistent after the third attempt, perform fault tracing according to VIDA.
