New door switch v70
I have received a new door switch and will be fitting it Monday. Has anyone actually relocated the pins in the terminal block rather than cutting and resoldered them?
Regards Dan. |

Put in a new door switch today. It works but the switch for the drivers side is on the left. Is this a small sacrifice to pay for a cheaper left hand switch? Also the pack itself didn't fit so good so it had to be manipulated in as it seemed a few mm too big.

Door Switch Fit
Interesting that the door switch did not just slot in.
I fitted a genuine VOLVO RHD switch and found that also needed a bit of work to get it to fit properly. Used a very sharp knife to ease the plastic in the recess in the door card to remove a small amount of plastic so that the switch assembly could be fitted and also removed at a later date if needed.

I've got two V70's and fitted new switches to both. After a few days your mind gets used to it, you self consciously think the nearest switch is the nearest window.
