💥Replaced C30 Automatic Shifter Blind...Now No Geartronic!
Replaced 2009 c30 auto trans shift blind. The old blind was broken into pieces and the old magnet was never found. Cleaned up the broken pieces and purchased a genuine volvo blind...genuine Volvo part made in Germany.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Took plenty of time on replacing. Positioned just as shown (smooth side up, ribbed side down). I think the slider with the magnet can only go into the blind one way. I never disconnected the shifter top circuit board as there was room enough to simply move it out of the way. Seems to me everything was reassembled correctly.
The shifter shifts smoothly, all lights on the face-plate I notice that the white shift indicator lights for illuminating for P,R,N,D, and +M- light when the key is turned on. The small red indicator lights work with P,R,N,D as selected...but there is no red indicator when shift moves to the right to select +M- (and of course no geartronic). I am wondering if the shift blind magnet may be causing this? or if it may be a bad control board? Or even if the blind magnet may be inserted in the blind body incorrectly (from the manufacturer) ...possibly reversing the magnets polarity.
So I am at a loss here... And if anyone has dealt with this issue... can you let me know what fixed it?
Much appreciated.
