Re: Let's see your Volvo (The Photo Thread)

Picked this up on Feb 14,2010. At the time it had a little over 100k miles on it. Now, well, now I'm not sure. Odometer broke shortly there after..hehe.. It needs some work...okay, more like a lot. But I love it and its mine. Only once has it left me stranded, and even then, it was my fault really. ...

Re: 98 V70XC -- Blue/Tan

Hi,

I'm also in Jacksonville, currently own Blue 96 850 Sedan. Originally I wanted a wagon, but couldn't find one. I've been searching again as I want to add a wagon to my driveway. Do you have the third row in this?

Thanks!

Justin

Re: A/C Thermal Switch

Well I just got done checking the ECC. It doesn't appear to have any burnt spots, or smoke build up on it. I've taken some pictures of it, perhaps I'm missing something.

Re: A/C Thermal Switch

You are right, today when the a/c stopped working I used a board to push the clutch in and ta-da! Cold air. I'm going to get under it tonight. I'm wondering if my "shims" fell out as it worked perfectly fine for a month. If they are still in there I think I'm just going to have the compres...

Re: A/C Thermal Switch

New developments. I've paid close attention to how my a/c has been working. For the past several mornings (Mid 70's) my a/c will work for the first 10 minutes then quit, when it quits, my temp quage is I'd say only 1/4 way up.. I shut the a/c switch off. Let it alone for 5 minutes by this time the t...

Re: A/C Thermal Switch

Thanks, so as the bottom arrow indicates that cylinder object, I cut the top wire and the bottom wire and then splice or solder them together, correct? I'm honestly not sure which problem it may be. I will try and get my hands on that A/C Relay first before I start hacking wires. Sometimes I can dri...

Re: A/C Thermal Switch

Sorry I haven't replied sooner. I just got my new laptop charger in the mail so my comp has been down. I know how to splice the wires, I just am not sure where I need to splice them at. They seem to be coming in and going several different directions.

A/C Thermal Switch

I think I have finally figured out what's going on with my A/C system. When I first bought the car the a/c would cut out and then never start again, did the ghetto clutch shim fix and worked perfectly till it started to really get hot outside. Now the Air cuts off about 10 minutes into driving and i...
