I've just replaced the CVVT valve on my 199 V70. Volvo have modified it so you need to assemble the new connector PROPERLY. Luckily I wasn't in a hurry and looked at it really hard. I can see it would be easy to mash it if you do it wrongly.
This is the new valve. Here is how you get the new connector You have to dismantle it like this. Make sure you have the fitting attached to the wire the correct way round. There is only one correct way. See the photo below tocheck it. Once you push the wire in it will click and lock itself home. Insert the other wire in the same way. Then slide the green plastic part on similar to the way you removed it. Then you can put the whole thing into the black casing.

Great post Terry.
I'm having trouble deciding which wire in my harness to splice into which post. I know that solenoids do not care about polarity, but I have one wire with 12V on my old plug and one wire showing no ground or voltage. Or perhaps that is only because I tested it in switch podition II where the ECU is doing some kind f power on test? Thanks for any help on this. David The plug I got has a different part number now. It looks the same but the wires are different. I've been trying to pull te plug apart but to no avail. Anyone know how hard this plug is to separate? I cannot get the wires to lock as it is assembled. Last edited by Manic Volvo; Aug 5th, 2011 at 01:56. Reason: Newfound information |

In my case I changed the solenoid because I had an erro code of P1672 on my non-turbo V70 engine. Non-turbo is mounted on the intake side.
On the turbo model it appears to be a code of P1132 and located on the exhaust side. Same function but slightly different parts and codes. I wouldn't replace it unless I had the code showing, the ECU monitors that solenoid and lets you know when it is not working properly. A good cleaning of the valve parts with carb cleaner failed to produce any results. |

I bought new (used) CVVT, but did not get the connector and I just have to cut the wires and plug them with wires only.
Could someone please specify that which one is marked as 1 and 2 on new connector, thanks. |

This is from Woody59 on another forum. It's what I used and it fixed my code problem.
- the green/orange wire is pin 1, yellow brown is pin 2. The connector supplied has the markings for pins 1 & 2. - if you connect it up wrong, you get a P0013 CEL - yes the connector supplied in the kit is a pain. I tried using it and kept getting a P0013 indicating it wasn't making the connection. Here is the very detailed posting link. Well worth a look. http://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/for...hp?f=1&t=21162 Good Luck |

Thanks Manic!
Got the CVVT installed and now everything is working as should. I soldered the wires and none codes appeared. |

Hi there, sorry to jump in with another question but...... I have a s40 sport and there is a drrrrr noise coming from the engine. I have been told that it is the solenoid (intake). We have replaced it and it is still doing it. We have disconnected the plug-in thingy and the noise stops. Can someone help me with this please. Can the car be driven with it disconnected, is it going to mess up my car? Do I need to get new wiring? HELP PLEASE!!!!

Just found a source for the new style CVVT connectors. I believe these should fit most Volvo models although listed as T5.
Inlet side http://www.maxxtuning.eu/products/en...lvo-vvt-intake Exhaust side http://www.maxxtuning.eu/products/en...vo-vvt-exhaust The prices are $7 each plus delivery charge. Maxtuning are based in Sweden |
