Re: Ignition chime on during operation - 1998 S70

They may have done something, or it may
just be a coincidence involving the small
switch in the ignition cylinder that detects
whether or not there’s a key in the car.

Shoot a little WD into the ignition cylinder,
then insert and remove the key a few times.

Worth a shot. 👍

Re: 1998 V70R: loud popping noise on radio on inrush loads (headlights/fan switching on). Persists after repair attempts

You may just be experiencing a symptom of low voltage. I’d suggest starting with something simple like a voltmeter plugged into the cigarette lighter socket and see what your voltage levels looks like while you’re driving. You can find inexpensive ones online. Added Bonus: Many also include USB char...

Re: Volvo 850 - Mirrors not heating + Chairs

I think that you have several different issues. The heated seats are on their own circuits and not a part of the mirror heaters at all. The mirror heaters and the rear glass heater both get power from the timed relay 208, shown as 2/44 in the attached diagram. It looks like the rear glass is fed fro...

Re: How to remove strainer from electric fuel pump? V70 2000

Just to throw in - A strainer isn’t doing more than blocking large chunks. In a plastic tank, with a regular life of only being filled with gas, there shouldn’t be much in the way of particulates at all. As long as it’s not clogged, and still flows with good volume, no big deal IMHO. Now an actual f...

Re: Factory headlight glass on the ABM projectors?

Pretty sure that the ABM’s use stock glass. The later model P80 C70’s, 2003 & 2004 with Jewel headlights used clear glass with no flutes. Check fit with your fluted lenses, and if they seal up tight, then you can go shopping. Here’s an example of the Jewels: https://www.amazon.com/EVAN-FISCHER-H...
