Hi John, many thanks for your reply which exactly mirrors my thinking. As far as I can see the draw off fitting only has one wire, possibly an earth? So this also suggests no pump as I struggle to see how it would be powered. Saying this the parts guy at Redditch Volvo is confident their is a pump and that the relay is in the back somewhere, hes going to have a further chat with service and ring me back, so I'll await with interest.

In the interim it started three times last night and has just brought me to work, so currently its a happy volvo - famous last words, lets hope I can get home for the weekend ;-)
