Re: Shiftlock micro switch 850 94

Hey Mark,

Seems the shift micro switch is a common failure (mine ha been replaced twice in 56,000 miles).

The symtoms you describe point to a failure of this micro switch.

I believe the Volvo part number for the MICROSWITCH is # 9466028-9 - I paid the dealer $12.81 for the part a year ago.

The repair is not difficult if you're handy around cars.

Took me about one hour - mostly removing and re-installing the center console.

If you want to try to do it yourself - Go to

http://www.volvospeed.com

and get into Bay 13 under Volvo Repairs and Maintenance.

Bay13 has excellent detailed illustrated instructions on how to do the job.

Good Luck

BTW - If it were me, I would not waste time testing your old microswitch - Just Replace it !
