ECU's and loom.. Do they need to be same year ?!

From CEM to VEM, from LED to lightbulb and more. If you have an electrical problem, like a broken info-centre, search for answers in this category. This is also the place to be when you expect the problem to be of an electrical nature...

looms are the same, differences between engine ecu's are related with crankwheel sensors( 2or 3 wires) ;)

Ooh.. I just have a 460, but I've swapped my ECU, and if you don't have both an exact volvo parts number and a siemens number, it will potentially give you a world of pain. For my car it's about 20 different ECUs, and only a couple will work at most. And probably not those with most matching numbers..
