2001 S80 2.9 Volvo AC stops working after briefly
if the voltage to the ac clutch is not 12 volts then find the bad connection that is causing the voltage drop
shimming the clutch is not a good idea as it is not recommended
I suspect that there is water in the ac system that is freezing and causing a high pressure problem and that is why the ac is switching off
Take it to an accredited ac specialists shop for a proper diagnosis
2001 Volvo S80-T6 Turbo
You want to go to the dealership or a mechanic WITH THE VOLVO VIDA and DICE tools to properly read the car. It will generally tell you everything you need to know about what's wrong.
If I had to guess at your problem, I would think it's the electronic throttle module that is bad.
GEAR SELECTOR REDUCED FUCTION message has consistently been showing on my 2001 Volvo s80 2.9 message screen. Recently I noticed that the gear began to malfunction. Occasionally the gear will refuse to
I'm guessing that your GearTronic function (the 'manual' mode) isn't working, nor is the Winter mode working (starting in 2nd or 3rd gear).
The gear selector module under the shifter is most likely the culprit, but using VIDA/DiCE (the Volvo car/computer interface) will tell you more. A local Volvo shop or dealer will have that.
I'm not sure if they're coded to the car, or if you can snag one cheaply from the junkyard from a similar year car and swap them..?!
I'd try disconnecting the battery for an hour first. Turn off the ignition, LEAVE THE CAR ALONE FOR 15 MINUTES and then disconnect the NEGATIVE battery post for 30 minutes.
When you connect the battery again, make sure you FIRST turn the ignition to position II - ignition on. Connect the cable, then turn off the ignition.
It might resolve a temporary problem, or the issue comes back, but at least you know it wasn't something really simple.
Airbag light stays on
The airbag system requires a special and very expensive diagnostic tool which not only is designed to cancel the air bag light, but it scans the entire system looking for faults which may have turned the air bag light on. This is one area where you do not want to attempt to repair or mess around with. If you do not know the proper procedures in servicing these systems, you can accidentally deploy the air bags. It shouldn't cost you that much to have the system scanned even if you don't have it fixed. Unless you are exceptionally well educated in mechanically repairing cars and this means , in some cases removing grilles, bumpers, fenders and other components to access a faulty component (including interior panels) Leave this up to a professional. You might get lucky and they can cancel the light because the scanner did not detect any fault withing the system.
