There is a park position switch inside the motor. The motor has power whenever key is on and another power lead is supplied when the headlamps wipers are operated. The first power lead is through a park switch so the wiper motor will run until it gets to the low position out of the way of headlight ...

I have a 2005 Volvo S80 that I recently purchased from my mother. I have been working my way through the car fixing things that have either been ignored or patched. I am not a mechanic and have been learning as I go along but, well, I'm cheap so I do it myself. So far I have fixed the Oil Trap clog ...

Well, I just checked the switch like Dan777 instructed and the switch is good. Then I unplugged the vacuum line from the auxiliary pump and the right side line to the brakes so there would be low vacuum and put the switch in the number II position and there was no vacuum. Then I unplugged the pump ...

Excellent write-up. I just did this on my '07 XC70, and everything (including part numbers) is the same. One thing I did differently -- on step 5, you can see in the picture that the bracket that the air box attaches to has U-shaped slots where the left two clips attach. This means you can save a ...

My S80 (2005 2.5t) has one. I am diagnosing it today. I have this problem. Only on cold starts.

I bought the car from my mother who paid for oil changes every 3K miles and who supposedly had her mechanic ...

Well, what began as an effort to check out the health of the Flame Trap / Oil Trap / PCV / EGR system (I know it isn't really any of those) on my 2005 S80 2.5T (engine B5254T2) has turned into an odyssey. I took the manifold off, I worked my way through the vacuum lines (who knows if I have them ...

I just did the same thing yesterday. I wrapped friction tape around it and then a small zip tie as nsjames suggested.

Wow... it took a long time to find this answer. I am in the same boat. I have a 2005 Volvo S80 2.5T ( B5254T2 engine). I have a similar clip. I read that it is one of several clips used and was new in 2005. (Don't know if that's right.) I spend an hour trying to get the fuel line out. I guess I'll ...
