OK, I found the SOB. IT IS NOT inside the right front fender well behind the fender liner!!! Although, I now know what the inside of the fender looks like.

IT IS on the center of the front firewall. I kept sounding it with the hood up and finder liner out until I located it. As I mentioned before pulling the fuse is not an acceptable work around because the radio and climate system go out.

With some experimenting, I was finally able to grab the plastic plug with lo9ng nose pliers and disconnect it. The release tab is impossible to see beforehand. And it will stay that way for a while.

Observations:

I DO NOT believe it is the siren. I think it is the control module or a sensor. The dealer diagnosed it as the siren control module. I read on a forum that if you replace that you must pair the new part to the car's computer with A Volvo computer to get satisfactory results. The continued killing off of shade tree mechanics.
