My concern is that the car electronics could end up being gutted and expensively replaced in an attempt to find the problem. I'm also worried that a failing system may not have sufficient oversight to properly monitor itself and hence flag a code, seeing as how this is not something like an engine sensor, etc. I did look for stored codes, but only with an OBD2 scanner - there were none... But i realise that a Volvo dealer could be able to find other codes and I'll give one a call on Monday. Where are the electronic control systems located? I did wonder if water may have got in, seeing as how the car lives outside and it has rained a lot? Thanks again Clan, much appreciated

I'll take a look tomorrow and try to access the plugs. I'll also disconnect the main battery to see if that resets anything. I guess it needs to be for an extended period?

Yes £80 about 18 months ago .. , disconnect the battery before you take the glove box out and just pull each plug out and in then reassemble and re connect the battery ,

Bargain! But I guess there'll be diagnistics, labour and VAT so it'll still be a slap to the wallet.
However for £80 I wouldn't bother to strip the CEM and consider reflowing or any other repair techniques. But I will disconnect the battery and do what you suggest. Irrespective of whether I can get it looked at by a dealer this week, I'm assuming that it is actually safe to drive?

Hmmmm odd one foot wells dry? Passenger specifically.....
Maybe try the volt meter on the in cabin 12v outlet Voltage regulator could be the issue gets hot and stops working seen in on other vehicles where the voltage reg is connected to cooling system (rare on a car) |

The voltmeter was connected to the cabin 12v outlet while I drove around monitoring the voltage. Where is this voltage regulator that you mention?
