2001 Volvo V70 XC AWD relay problem!
This is my family's car and has been sense 2002 yet it only has 89,000 miles! Well when I was little I had a interest in anything electronics (still do) and liked to pull plugs and stuff. So when i was 4 or something I pulled all the relays in the cargo/rear storage area. Ever sense I pulled em the car has displayed warning messages, windows and locks hasn't worked etc. Well i've fixed some of the relays through trial and error, now all i'm left with is non functioning sun roof, light position sensor error, ABS warning, traction light, ABS light, and SRS airbag service urgent. So does anyone have a picture of their cargo area relay panel I can use for reference?

Below is the full wiring diagram (2001 and 2002 are nearly identical cars).
You de-populated the REM, the panel in the rear on the driver's side, with the access door just forward of the rear cargo bay door, correct? (Wow, lucky they let you live after that!)
Start by doing a search in the pdf for "REM" (Part 4/56), and this will show the relays plugged into it for each of the various functions. Each page shows a function, so many of them will show something plugged into the REM. You can then search for those relay part numbers and see the location of each on the REM in the "Component Illustrations". Print out the appropriate pages, or take the laptop out to the Volvo.
So, for example, relays 20/33 and 20/26 are the relays for the taillights, one for left side, and one for right side. They occupy locations 26 and 33 on the REM, which are shaded dark gray in the "Component location" illustration for each.
But some of what you list is likely caused by something other than pulled-out relays in the REM. I think a VIDA would be a good investment to make, as once you learn how to use it properly (and there are several tutorials around) you can then see what the cause of each light actually is, and know what the mechanic should do.
