Do It Yourself ABS Module Repair
Our own Ozark Lee has written up, with pictures the repair on the ABS Module…this is on a ’96 850 but I suspect the repairable ones are all the same. Thanks Lee!

mi volvo 850 -1997 le cuesta encender en frio y despues suena un relay que esta encima de la pedalera
Just a quick note to say thank you to Ozark for the superb original post, and to everyone who has done this and posted their results which adds confidence.
I fixed my 1997 V70′s ABS module, hopefully permanently, on Sunday. I had to buy a torx bit set and a new gas soldering iron, as my 25watt electric one was not up to the job!!!
Only tip I can add to the great comments was that I had better luck getting a good, shiny and even solder joint I could be confident will last, by using the hot air attachment rather than the solder bit on the big power connectors – even with a gas iron, they just absorb all the heat!
This saved me over £500 and may have prevented the car being a write-off, as I thought this might not fix the issue and be good money after bad.
Now, I think I will keep the car and sort it out 100% DIY – I want to tackle my SRS warning light, and find out why my LPG conversion stopped working a year ago! God bless the Internet, sites like this are its soul!
