With Air Conditioning

• Disconnect battery ground cable at battery.
• Detach pipe from control module box.

• Remove power steering pump and place it on top of engine.

• Remove air baffle.

• Reverse proc...

Disconnect both battery cables and short them together for a few minutes. Then reconnect the battery and check the instrument panel. If this doesn't work, you may need to replace the instrument cluster (volvo calls this a drivers information module). I have replaced several of these and they are not cheap. You can't install a used unit and you will need to download software into the vehicle to make it work.

Hope this helps you.
