I have a 2007 volvo d3 160 I think the evc module went bad. It cranks but no start. gauges, trim control, remote start panel, and control panel all are dead. the only thing from the harness that works is the key switch.
Im getting fuel to the injectors and I can get it to run with starting fluid.
Is there a way to bypass the evc to get it running?
Could a newer evc module be used? like EVC-C?
anyone had similar issues?
thanks
 
Hi,There have been ongoing probs with volvo DMI boxes or MDI ( diesel mechanical interface or vice versa) Im on my 3rd, people I have spoken to in the states some were on there 6th, vovo have replaced under warranty, I think the engines were newer than yours, mine's 2013, with push button start. The symtoms you describe are similar, but these are on sail drives.

i also have remote start and stop on the dash but it doesn't work too. my dealer is trying to track down a MDI box for me.
thanks
