If that's the original wiper motor (and not some replacement motor that might not work right in that car), find the wiper motor. Now find a replacement motor and swap it out.

Inside the wiper motor is an automatic "park" circuit; one wire feeds power to the motor at all times. The park circuit in that motor can't detect when it's parked, so it keeps trying.

SOURCE: volvo s80 dashboard fault

I recently purchased a 2002 S60 D5 which had this problem. I am not a Volvo expert so don't know if it could be the same fault, but it sounds identical. No lights, gauges etc, but intermittently and very briefly comes on. Having heard some silly prices for replacement dash and ECU, I had a look. I found 4 poor soldered joints on the dash circuit board (top left processor & heat sink). I cleaned them and re-soldered them, although I had continuity just after cleaning the corrosion. The dashboard has worked perfectly since (3 weeks) . If you try this make sure you disconnect the battery first or you may have the SRS airbag warning light on! (I had to have it re-set at the dealers!!)

The whole process took less than an hour. If you are not electronically savvi get one of your mates who is to have a look..

SOURCE: valet key will not start volvo s80. turns in

thats because your regular key probably has an electic connection to the car so go to your volvo dealer and they should be able to clear anything up or replace it with a key that will work

SOURCE: how to replace wiper for 2006 volvo s80

lift the wiper arm off the windscreen as you would do if you were washing the windscreen. tilt the blade assembly so that they are at right angle to the wiper arm and now push the wiper blade down towards the wndcreen. some gentle force is required until it becomes seperate from the arm. do the same with the other one.

cheers

SOURCE: What happens if a 02 Volvo s80 v6 turbo breaks

You have no valve clearance, it definetly hit a exhaust valve , you will need a valve job and find the reason your belt broke to begin with. It is impossible that a valve did not get hit

You don't they come on when you spray the windscreen washers while the wipers and lights are turned on.

2009 volvo s80 won't start

Try disconnecting the negative battery cable for 10 minutes then reconnect it...verify that the battery is charging properly..sounds like the battery does not have enough cranking power..if he jumped it and it ran okay until you shut it off, the alternator is working properly, battery needs replacement...cheers.

I have a 2001 Volvo s80 that ran out of gas. Now, my car will not turn over and it seems like my battery is low. I put 3 gallons of gas in the tank, and when I tried to start it I see message that says...

I would disconnect the battery, then reconnect and have someone jump the car while trying to start. Seems like a safety error that shut your car off so your fuel pump wouldn't burn out.

Hello, I recently replaced my wife's alternator on her 2000 Volvo S80 2.9L (6)cyl non turbo. I followed all the rules, disconnect (-) battery, relocate PS Pump, diconnected upper cooling hose. Installed...

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.
