1. Engine will not start. Battery is full, key fob is at helm.

Nothing happens when the start button is pressed.

Error message: Engine lost comm. with Helm. Check EVC system. Gear auto set to neutral.

Gear select blinks red at neutral.

2. Was able to start engine after trying multiple things on one occasion and noticed no boost indicator on gauge, but engine has full power and speed.

Engine time 123 Hrs.

Prior to problems noted above, 100 hour service just completed at 120 hours.
 
Hi there,

This might entail a call to your local Volvo dealer to do a diagnostic check to see what types of trouble codes are already in the system. Do you remember what you tried that finally allowed the engine to start?

Cheers,

Ralf

Hi Ralf,
Thank you for your reply. We had our maintenance company out yesterday and he was able to determine through a process of elimination that the problem might be battery related. After battery replaced, problem solved, engine starts right up.

Excellent. I'm glad that this was a relatively simple issue to solve. Not sure how old the batteries were, but keep an eye on the charging system for the short term, just in case.

Cheers!
