SC-901 3 Disc in dash CD player Topic is solved

Post by **scot850** » 02 Jul 2020, 06:20

The C70 has a much different amp to a sedan/wagon. I don't know if it has a separate Dolby unit or if it is integrated. I am assuming you have a center speaker on the dash? There was a thread recently on problems with a 'regular amp' that someone had just fitted. It was dirty/bad connections that were the issue on the cables. As you know the amp is in the trunk on LHS behind a panel. Check it's connectors too.

Separate dolby unit on the C70, plugs into the back off the SC-901 like on the V/S70.

The separate Dolby Pro Logic unit is Volvo part number 3533799.
1998 - 2004 C70 Convertible
1998 - 2002 C70 Coupe
1998 - 2000 S/V/XC 70

Yeah, i had the amp out a few months ago when detailing the trunk area and installing new bulbs and tail light housing and I cleaned all the connections before installing it back but i will trace the pro-logic wire to find it and clean all connectors.I assume electronic cleaner or isopropyl is sufficient.

Contact cleaner is best as it does not leave a filmy residue like IPA does.

Volvo’s are judgy. They won’t play any music by a Madonna, the BeeGees, or Supertramp.

Classical will always work, as well as anything by Prince.

Bach organ music in the S70, awesome

My favorite attorney in NJ blessed me with that system in Abbys S70 when I bought her
