Default can I pull the fuse?

Don't you have when people keep asking question, but seldom have answers? Sorry, but soon I will know more and will have answers! Anyway, my '95 turbo climate system keeps blowing and I can't stop it. The Volvo tech said it was the control panel, cuz they checked the relay and it wasn't the problem. So can I just pull the fuse for the blower motor so I don't burn it out? Plus my glove box won't open. It was sticking and now it's stuck. I used the key to lock and unlock, but no use. Thanks much for all the help and knowlegde.

Don't have many answers either and I sure don't know about the blower problem, but I had the same problem with my glove box quite sime time ago. I am almost certain that I had to buy a new door for it. They could not just replace the lock.

The blower motor runs when the car is off?
The speed can't be adjusted at all?

Follow the link and that will explain how to open the glove box.
You can buy the latch assy. to repair it.
If you have anymore quiestions let me know.

No, it only runs when the car is on and running. I suppose I will just pull the fuse. For the door, could I press the latch to make it release? Does anyone have a pic of the inside of the glove box door? Otherwise I will make the Volvo dealer fix it, it worked before they had it. Thanks.

Im working on trying to get a pic of it.I have explained many times how to get it open.If the dealer is going to charge you to get it open and then charge to fix it let me know.I will explain how to get it open.Then you will only have to buy the parts to repair the door.

Is you climate control module MCC or ECC?
There should be a fuse you can pull.

I saw your instructions on the glov box, I will try that if I have to, but if I do go to the dealer, they had better not charge me. I thnk they may have done something when they changed the resistor for the climate system. Isn't that under the glove box? I think I have the ECC, it is the dual climate with the auto setting. As far as the fuse goes, I looked in the Chlitons, is it the fuse for the high speed setting I would pull? Seriously though tech, thanks for all the help, if you need anything from O'ahu, let me know.

I think it would be the high speed fuse.That is the only speed that doesn't run through the resistor.
High speed is full 12v.Every thing up to high runs through the resistor.
Yes if you have the AUTO setting it is ECC.
If you have any salvage yards near you check with them for a used control head.
