Had a quick look at the passenger side footwell light today. It's been unplugged, so maybe that's the lock I should be paying attention to.
On a separate issue, I bought and tailgate wiper mechanism off ebay. I had an hour or so to spare this morning, so I fitted it. It gave one cycle then stopped. Power is there, but it just won't work. I can hear something clicking at intervals at the back, but nothing else. This car is really starting to frustrate now. No car before has resisted my attempts to fix it like this one. |

Here we are again.
I've got the footwell and door edge lights working correctly on both doors now. They come on correctly, and go off correctly without having to slam the doors hard. But, the overhead courtesy lights still stay on with the switch in the courtesy light position. I'm at the limit of my knowledge now. I did buy another complete panel, but unfortunately, it's slightly different and does not work. On my courtesy light panel, the symbols are printed on the switches, on the panel I bought, they're printed on the panel itself. It never occurred to me that Volvo would change the design of the panel. I don't know what else to do really, short of buying yet another correct panel, so if anyone has one for sale the same as mine, with the symbols printed on the switches, I'd be happy to discuss a sale with you. Any further advice will be welcome, because I'm a tad stumped now. Oh, by the way, I finally got the rear wiper working. I'm just waiting on the wiper arm now, should be here today. |

Hi
I have one but it has printing on the panel, not the switches. If I look at the underside I can see Volvo part number 9169500 https://www.ebay.com/p/Overhead-Inte...850/1123984617 I am pretty sure it came from a 1998 V70 with a sunroof. What part number is on yours? This is on ebay at the moment https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/000-ESTAT...T/322850445645 Steve

Dave NP. The courtesy lights are supposed to stay on for 30 seconds I think??, unless the ignition is switched on or the car is locked. Mine stay on all the time, but sometimes when I switch them on manually, only one will come on, sometimes two, which makes me question the courtesy light panel itself. I'm probably wrong and it's something to do with the locks/microswitches. All confidence in getting it fixed has gone now, but at least I've triumphed over the rear wiper |

DaveNP, you don't do supermarket deliveries, do you?
All our Merc Axors have a radio cut out when the door is opened. It's for 'noise sensitive' stores, and we have quite a few of those. Another point about my door locking. On the rare occasions when I manage to lock the car from the fob ( I think I have a dodgy lock button on the fob), the indicators don't flash, and the red alarm light on the dash doesn't flash, yet when I unlock it from the fob, the indicators give two flashes. Shrug shoulders. |

Right, having completed my Sunday duty of pushing a trolley round Tescos, I whipped the overhead light panel off.
The part number is T 9178 827 Interesting development actually, the lights won't work on with the switch in the courtesy light position at all now. Hmmm, |

Have you tried soaking it with copious amounts of contact cleaner and working the switches? Just be sure to leave it dry out for a few minutes before replacing.

Yep, done that.
May do it again though, and give it a real proper soaking this time. Nothing to lose, only my marbles. |
