Neil.
I'm a blind moron. I knew your name was Neil. But I was right. scot stands for scotland

Neil.
Thank you. Question: is scot short for Scottish or your name Scott? Suddenly neither of those look right.

Re: 95 850: electrical Gremlin was duo of J relays

Ok, I thought those 2 things were connected, but wither way, glad you got a simple resolution in the end. I'd say $10 worth while spending when you can get that diagnosis so quickly!! Glad you got your car sorted. Does that mean you no longer need a car like Matthews 850R? I was just talking to my ...

Re: 95 850: electrical Gremlin was duo of J relays

How did you track this issue down? It would be helpful to understand your diagnostic process as it is a weird issue. Thanks, Neil. That's why I was so thankful you recommended paying Robert $10 to solve the issue. I told him everything going wrong with the electrical. He was the one that said it so...

Re: 95 850: electrical Gremlin was duo of J relays

😭 All of ^this^ hulabaloo and trickery over 2 J relays under the hood. I still can't wrap my head around how relieved I am. It was ending up a failure but then ended a success.

Re: 1997 850R wagon for sale [Denver]

With his knowledge and experience I'd gladly pay Robert for his insight to your car's issues. Heck, my buddy is glad paying $210 CDN (about $150 US) for an hour of a Volvo dealer's mechanic time so they can confirm what we have told Volvo about his son's car's problem and they have now done that an...
