Stability Control
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Volvo V70, 2009 Volvo V70, and 2008 Volvo V70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Stability is controlled by the brake control module (BCM) sending a signal to the engine control module (ECM) to reduce engine torque if a drive wheel should start to spin and there is a reduction in road grip. Stability control is operable between 0 km/h (0 mph) and top speed.
Applies for V70 (08-)
Stability control can be engaged or disengaged manually by turning the function selector on the left steering wheel stalk until "DSTC/spinncontrol on/off" appears in the driver information module display. The selection is then confirmed by pressing the "Reset" button. All functions are connected when the ignition is turned on. If the stability function is disengaged, the other functions will operate normally.
