Newbie Questions...

Good morning! This looks like an excellent site. I already learned how to change out my headliner. If it has been answered, would you please give me a link.I purchased a 2004 Volvo XC 90 last year. Of course, the usual problems with a 14 year old car, but only had 44K miles on it.

Out of nowhere, my electrical system (not the engine!) seems to "burp" off an on. That is, the locks will suddenly not work. Ditto all the windows but driver's side. Ditto my fuel door lock. Obviously, it's not a fuse, right? If I turn the engine off once or twice it seems to reset itself. Volvo dealer had no idea. Sigh. Thanks!

Hello and welcome!

It may have to do with the alarm siren module (google up). When this goes bad, it may confuse some systems.

But may not be the only possibility. Here's another possibility (see the last comment) viewtopic.php?t=49517

So it may take a little bit of time to locate the issue
