Hi guys

I'm new to the forum and looking for some advice.


I have just bought a 2000 volvo v70 2.4 which has done around 150k miles. When I got the car it took a good few minutes for the stereo, indicators, wipers, blowers and light to come on, I would hear a click and then they would all start working. However yesterday they don't come on at all, the speedometer, revs, clock, message board and high beam all still work fine. I have had a mechanic check all the fuses and some of the main relays which are all working fine. He also plugged the engine in and no error codes came up. Does anyone have an idea what this could be? Someone mentioned the electrical ignition switch could it be this?

Thanks


Andy

 

Ive also noticed today key position 1 does nothing but 2,3 and turnover do

 

I am new to V70, too, but I would check you have a healthy battery and maybe swap out the main relay. I believe it is in the triangular fuse box near the battery.

 

So guys i got an ignition switch today and its all back working £40 fix volvo wanted £90 to look at it �� thanks for the help Brian and volvo forums much appreciated
