I recently replaced the damaged thermistor in the climate control unit of my 2004 V70 SE T5

I duplicated the order with marginally different configurations "just in case". However, I could only order the thermistors in packs of 5 (our local Maplins has gone!!!) so I now have nine spare thermistors ie

5 of RS Spares EPCOS B57540G1103F000 Thermistor 10kΩ, 0.8 (Dia.) x 1.4mm (spherical glass) RS Stock No. 769-1892 which cost me £3.59 each delivered
and
4 of Rapid's DHT0A103F34D3SY 10K 3435k 1% Axial (Cylindrical Glass) NTC Thermistor Order Code: 55-1229 which cost me £2.20 each delivered.

Their specification ie operating parameters are identical even though they are physically differently.

I'm happy to sell them on individually to Volvoforums.org.uk members at cost for either type + 95p P&P i.e. to cover the bubble wrap envelope & postage if anyone is interested.

They are very small components so some sort of protective wrapping is needed in the post.

N.B.

I've again checked the output temperature of the air from the air con: the output reads 22.2°C with an ambient cabin temperature of 22° +/- 0.1°C (i.e. one scale division) - the dash area readout was showing as 22°C which was the same as the dialled in temperature on the CCM potentiometers.
My digital thermometer at various points around the car showed 22°C.
The only major difference was the cargo area which showed a temperature of 22.6°C which given the sun and outside temp of 24°C was no real surprise.

When other temperatures were dialled in as 24°C and 18°C the output on each side was comparable @ +0.2°C.
