CarConfig

Our S60’s full P3 configuration, in the open. Most people guard this; we’re publishing it as a real, working reference so the next person retrofitting a P3 has something concrete to compare against.

5 parts platform P3 2015 S60 tool: P3Tool

CarConfig is the P3 platform's self-image — a set of configuration parameters, held in the central electronic module, that describes what the car is: which options it has, which features to show, which modules to expect. A great deal of what separates a base car from a loaded one isn't wiring, it's these bytes.

That's why the same tool the retrofit community lives by — read the config, change a parameter, and a feature the car always had the hardware for wakes up. It's also why sourcing the right factory part is only half a retrofit; the other half is telling the car the part exists.

Below is our own S60's CarConfig, laid out in full and shared publicly. Most people guard this. We're putting it out in the open — a real, working reference of what the parameters look like on a configured car, so the next person has something concrete to compare against.

Shared for reference between P3 owners. CarConfig values are specific to this car’s VIN and options — use them to understand what a configured parameter looks like, not as values to blind-copy onto another car. Editing a P3’s configuration can disable features or set faults if done wrong; work from a full backup and know how to restore it.
