Re: Anyone in need of the intermittant wiper relay?

Hello, I could use some assistance - I just replace my old relay (203) with one (VW 99) I purchased from ebay. It seemed easy, pulled the old out and slipped the new (actually used) in. Now when I move the arm to the intermittent setting and wait to set the wipers, lets say at the 10 second mark the...

Re: Lifting car

Along the same lines: could I use the scissors jacks, one from the car I'm lifting and another from my 850 to lift each side at the same time. My goal is to get the entire car on jack stands for some exhaust work, and leave it on the jack stands for the winter.

Thanks in advance,

Re: I bought another one! (Volvoholics anonymous?)

I'm up to four and counting. How can one not want more than two, one to play with, one to drive every day and the last one (clean one)for nice days.

Maybe I'm crazy !!!

'98 S70 - Trunk Light Bulb number

Hello All,

Does anyone have a part number for a non-OEM replacement bulb. I'm trying to get my trunk light working, never has from the time I purchased the car.

I removed the bulb holder only to find no bulb.

Thanks :)

Re: '98 S70, Repost: troubleshooting cruise control pedal sw

Sorry for not posting more details. You are correct this ride is my 1998 S70. The switch is the one with the vacuum line, above the brake light switch. The cruise has not worked for some time, so I stuck my hand up around the brake pedal and I could feel the switch was loose, I could easily move it....

Repost: troubleshooting cruise control pedal switch

Hello All,

Repost:
I was hoping that someone could tell me how to test the "Cruise Control Pedal Switch". I have the switch out and it looks fairly simple. But is it as simple that when the plunger is fully engaged that I should have a completed circuit. :D

Thanks in advance,

Follow-up: How well this work. What year is your car & did your check engine come back on ??? I've been working on mine from early spring, I've changed "J" hose, the hose right next to the "J" and resealed the Evap valve. The light keeps coming back on.... So I'm thinking abo...

Re: '96 850 NA; URO Breather Hose failure

I think you get the idea. Please any thoughts as I used the same URO hose again, it was part of the kit I ordered. I hope it makes through the winter.
