here is the detail instruction on resetting trans fluid with Volvo VIDA DiCE
I have successfully tested and changed the automatic Transmission Fluid for my 2000 Volvo S80 T6 with 174k with the VOLVO VIDA DICEOBD diagnostic system today. Yesterday my vehicle gave me "Transmission service required'" message with an accompanying orange engine service light. So I just go to the TCM (transmission control module) with VIDA and reset the fluid counter this morning.
I hooked up my Volvo VIDA Dice 2014D (A-quality) which arrived at my door 15 days ago from obd2express.co.uk at the perfect price €86. The VIDA 2014D version did not disappoint me because it can and only loaded on Win 7 system. I do not need to setup a Virtual machine on old Win XP laptop again. That's a huge advance of VIDA.
After well installed Vida software, connect the Volvo Dice kit with vehicle via OBD socket
