In most cars, the AC kicks on when you turn it to defrost. The AC air is dry and will quickly defrost the windshield, so that sounds like it is working correctly. The other problems maybe in the vent control motors that adjust based on your temperature and air direction settings. I don't know too m...

Ok, the switch to change where the air comes out seems to do nothing, but when I put it to defrost, I can hear the AC click on. I wanna get this fixed before it starts getting cold. Will Volvo charge to do a diagnostic on the AC? All they have to do is plug it in right??? tim Damn I wish I had a 95 ...

Well I talked to someone, and he said that there is no vaccuum lines on this car, its all electronic. So maybe it's the switches? I dunno, but it's driving me nuts.

Oh man my climate control is all screwed...

Well, I got my car a couple months ago (96 850 GLT) and have been having little problems since... The AC / REC lights were blinking when I got it, and all that worked was the defroster. So I bring it back to the dealer and the have it "fixed". Well guess what, the flashing lights are back ...

Nope, I don't know why it was stuck, I barely even touched it and it did a quick wipe and quieted down. I'm not too worried about the headlight wipers anyways, I wouldn't even mind taking them out.

Nevermind, I figured it out. The passenger side headlight wiper was stuck and making funky noises. I moved it a little and it wiped then stopped making the noise.

Strange sound when car first turned "on"

Hey, my 1996 850 GLT makes a strange noise when I first turn it to "on". I can hear it when the car it not running, and when it is running. Sounds like it is comming from under the hood, front passenger side. It's not the fan, it's a like a buzz, but it kinda speeds up, then stops after a ...
