Usually means the Dice is dead but check on another suitable Volvo to rule out an issue with your car instead.
If the dice IS good, is the communication problem an indicator of CEM problem?

That occasionally happens on my DICE setup but a restart of the laptop sorts it out.

Think I've tried that bud but I'll give it another go tomorrow just in case. Incidently, is there a plug in sequence for the dice? Or is it just plug in to laptop and OBD and fire up laptop and dice?

Possibly or the OBD wiring could be dodgy.
It's another one of the reasons why I test the Dice I sell so if there is an issue, you know the Dice can be eliminated and speed up troubleshooting.

Hi mate, your in the Torquay area with working dice and vida? I'm in Teignmouth and really need to get my xv90 sorted. Wondering if I can come over and you can check over my vida install and check if my dice is working. If it isn't mebbe we can use yours to get a better idea of what's what with mine. Can't reply to pms but here's my number 07749306790 send a text if you can, desperate for results. My only other option is to buy a second dice setup from the guy on here. Don't really want to do that unless I know for sure my current dice is no good. Thanks in advance, Steve.
