thanks Dave
OK Dave gocha I'll buzz it all out tomorrow. I checked power on one of the spare sockets in the CEM and thats live and no other problems. So is this possibly a CEM fault?
Another question puzzling...
I have now discovered that although the F9 is good on the CEM I am getting no voltage from there to the brake light switch?
Cheers Dave yes im going to run in a wore to the back and take the brake lights out of the system and wire them into a slave system. Same for the gear interlock solenoid. Its the only way to save...
Hi Mike
I know this thread is very old and I thought I knew V70's pretty well as Ive had them for over 20 years! I have raised a question about brake lights. About to go home the other morning...
OOh how do you mean? Just slave in wires to the gear lock solenoid and brake lights?
another quick question do these cars have just ONE rear fog light or 2? Im sure my last one had 2 but this...
I called the AA out as they have a 'super computer'. Its not good news.
It points to a possible ABS module fault which he told me is going to cost £££££'s for a new one and to get programmed.

UPDATE:
well i got my hopes up too quick its NOT fuse #9 so back to square one. So we know its a new brake light switch and the fuse isnt blown so the only other components in that line are the RM15...
cheers Dave im running out of ideas here it points to a fuse but theres not one in any of the fuse boxes in the right locations :( I have 1 under the bonnet - 1 in the end of the dash by the drivers...
Not as far as I know it looks all standard UK but its funny you say that as it doesnt even have an RM15 relay that I can find? It does strike me as strange how many emoty fuse spaces it has.
Dave...
Yes I agree but looked there and its 'spare' (empty slot)? Same in other fuse boxes.
HI Dave
Ive replaced the brake switch so I know its not this. I havent tried the relay as everywhere seems to say it doesnt have a relay in the circuit? But I'll have to bell it out to checki...
Well i have now bought a light out module a cheapy one from a breaker just to see if its that. The trouble i I cant find this thing in the car! Some guy shows it on the left of the boot on the...
UPDATE:
OK so everywhere online says there is a fuse in position 12 under the bonnet - NOPE checked all the other fuse boxes nothing is fitted in position 12 in any of them. How can a lighting...
Hi Folks
the other day after working a 12 hour shift I hopped into the car and started up put my foot on the brake to move it into drive and IT WOULDNT. Looked in the mirror and checked the brake...
I had a look at this pipe onto the radiator it appears to be aluminium or does it go to rubberlower down to fit the Magnafine?
Thanks mate. Where does the 'MAGNAFINE' fit into the system please?
I was beginning to think a box change was needed as there is a 'flat spot' when accelerating the gears just hand between 2&3 for...
YOU SIR are a genius what oil do you use please?
THANK YOU!!!
OK no interest in that then!
Has anyone swapped out a gearbox on a V70 Phase 2 please? I know this is going to be an engine, drive shafts, exhaust etc OUT of the car. I'll have to get a second...
Last month I was on my way home from work when the car started acting strangely. It took AGES to accelerate away at junctions ( which was a bit hairy). Luckily only 6 miles from home I stopped for...
YES she flew throught and the MOT guy said how much better she was now! Trouble is I have moved onto a farm now and shes struggling with the muddy lanes so I may have to get a 4x4 Volvo XC70 or XC90....
Well my new exhaust finally arrived the centre section and silencer plus the rear box. Now Ive replaced many exhausts in my time and THIS was the easiest Ive ever experienced! TWO BOLTS which came...
Ive got the car up on jacks and had a look and the silencer looks like a sive! I have found 2 'possible' silencers at a reasonable price.
The trouble is Im not sure which one looks like mine? Im...
CHEERS DAVE up on the ramps she goes then in the freezing fog -LUVERLY.
Yeah I love Volvos just NOT the handbrake arrangement! Ive had cars where the handbrake grips the disc MUCH EASIER hardly...
Hi folks
last year my car passed MOT without a hitch this year HANDBRAKE (usual Volvo fail - so useless theose handbrakes) drop links (minor) and centre and rear exhaust blowing.
The lowest...
