This is my first non 240 series Volvo, and something is driving me nuts.A few week ago i slid out of control downhill on ice and went through a ditch into my neighbors yard. the next day i went back and it started fine, but i found the Rack and pinion was damaged. I was able to get it home and replaced the rack. at least a couple weeks had gone by.then it hasn't started since being in the garage, but it did shortly after the accident. IS there a sensor that disables ignition when an inpact is registered as i hear some cars have? I know it started soon after, so it sems unlikely, but what if it just didn't trigger right away?I have fuel present, but no spark,even with a new ignition module/coil and tune-up with new plugs cap and rotor was not long ago.I saw on www.volvotips.com that there are two fuses labeled "electronic start inhibitor (immobilizer)" and both fuses are good.AM thinkning it could be collision prevention or alarm curcuit. I now notice a small red L.E.D that flashes when i put in the key. Any thoughts guy? has anyone else out there run into anything like this?
