Control knobs for Electronic Climate Control (ECC). I seem to be the only one who needs this but my knobs broke at the center and the metal clips popped out. I blame decades of Texas summers. Anyway I designed 2 versions. One that requires the metal clip and one that does not. I tried to mimic the t...

Under the dash, to the left of the steering column,
you'll find two large distribution blocks with 5 plugs each.
The one nearest the column has a red plug in position 4.

Disconnect the negative post of the battery, then unplug
and reseat the red plug a few times. That may get it.

The thrust bearing on the cams near cylinder 1 needs to have a giant gorp of grease or it will seize up. It’s hard steel on an aluminum head and it likes to stick

You don’t have to put on the sealer to test fitment and cam motion.

Hy Buddies,

I've found that.

Enjoy.

Blow it out with compressed air or nitrogen. Replace evaporator, dryer, all o-rings, make sure to vac that sucker with a vacuum pump for at least a half hour once you establish a good vacuum. Also be prepared to replace the oil charge since you're replacing the compressor. The condenser usually on t...

In addition to what has been mentioned, it is a real swine to access but the orifice tube #14 should get replaced as it is an expansion valve and can stick or get plugged. https://www.volvooftorontoparts.ca/a/Volvo_1998_V70/54747609__5705610/Air-conditioning/GR-73985.html#28 Also recommend replacing...

When you guys are saying remotes are stored in the VGLA module, which one is it on -98 S/V70 ? The alarm module that's attached to the steering column, or the module on top of the instruments (pictured) ? https://www.usedecus.com/images/products/th/340x300_6/20170831_125145.jpg The remotes never wo...
