Volvo S60 Driver’s side power window switch

Let’s talk about the Driver’s side power window switch

I had the same problem on my 2002 xc70. It uses the same Drivers Door Module (DDM) part number 30658116.

I did three things

  1. Disassembled the DDM and Cleaned the buttons and the upper circuit board assembly. This module does not have contacts to clean. instead it has force sensors integrated into the circuit board that can be affected by an accumulation of dust and dirt. The rubber mat on top of the upper circuit board and under the buttons needs to be removed and cleaned.
  2. Removed the wiring plugs from the connectors on the DDM and the window drive motor and cleaned them using contact cleaner.
  3. Lubricated the window drive gear with general purpose grease.

OEMVolvoParts » Well, you may need a new switch, or you may only need to have the window recalibrated. Either way it has to be taken to a shop with VIDA, which can be either an independent or a dealer. The VIDA system is not exclusive to dealers, Indy shops can use the same system dealers do. It just costs so much money for the subscription, that you have to be a large shop to recover the money you spend on the system.

We do sell a fair amount of DDM’s or drivers door modules for this car, and it does require software when installed because it is a module. Anytime you hear something referred to as a module, its going to require software when installed. Part number is 30658116, which is for the DDM, we have them in stock. Just put in the part number in the “search” function, and compare prices. Mention MVS and receive free shipping!

007 HNP » It is necessary to remove the door lining to remove the DDM since there is a screw inside the door lining that holds the module to the lining.

The module or the lining will be damaged if you just try to pry ther module out.

Removing the door lining is a very simple job.

There are 8 button rivets which can be removed by pushing the center of the rivet in about 1/8 of an inch, you will feel a click and the rivet can then be pulled out.

Removing the door handle cover is simple and you will need to find the slot for a screw driver in the cover by shining a flashlight upward on the bottom of the handle cover. once located insert a flat screw driver about 1/4 inch and gently twist the screw driver to loosen the cover, gently pull on the cover to remove it.

There are two Torx screws holding the handle to the door, remove these and the lining will be loose.

Pull the bottom of the lining inward and upward and the lining will come off to about 3 inches clear of the door.

You will need to release the cable for the door handle by opening the plastic clips that hold the cable. Remove the two connectors on the DDM and on connector for the speaker on the lining.

Reinstallation is the reverse.

Back to your specific problem

Is the DDM totally dead meaning the buttons don’t illuminate with the headlights on, all of the windows, the locks and the side mirrors don’t work or do some of these things work?

Do the rear windows and passenger side window work if you use the buttons on the modules located on the specific doors?

Has the DDM module been replaced with a different one recently or is it the original?
