2001 Volvo V70 xc fan works but ac nor the heater or defroster will come on.

no car owned ever saved me money for 50 years. why not diagnose it first and worry cost last. find the truth first some failures are each to fix. HVAC topic cars. well all you can do is 2 things.
  • check fuses.
  • get it scanned. many shops/stores do it for free.
blower (fan) WORKS BUT CONTROLS DEAD. TO HVAC ask dad for help? or brother, or uncle?????? not told at all blower spins but does it push(blow) air to any vents (MODES)? blower works but fails on heater and cold to all vents or just some. if the heater work and cold air fails on all vents that can be A/C failure under the hood or the controls are stuck in heater mode. there are many tests to find out if problem is in the dash or under the hood; , lots of tests. the cause can be just a loose wire, or vastly more complex a evap core blown. (just did mine last week)$$$$$$$

My 2015 Volvo v60 isn't detecting my key in the car. How do I fix that?

Check the remote battery. According to Volvo, it needs to be between 2.7v and 3.3v. However, I have had customers with complaints about remote function with voltage around 2.8v to 2.85v that I've replaced the battery for with no further problems.

There should be a connector attached to the fan where you can unplug it. If I remember correctly, it is towards the passenger side of the radiator.

2012 Volvo C70 convertible. The top is stored, trunk lid opens as normal, then everything stops. Have to wait maybe 30 minutes then I can successfully close the top back down.

Question moved from spanish car maker 'Seat' (See-At). Question edited for clarity. Guessing it is a Volvo, so moved it there. 'Year Make Model' in all question please. Try, it just be aware of pinch points and get ready to move fast. Also have someone at the ignition key ready to cut power in case anything jams.
