Car Forum / Volvo Cars / January 2008Need OD solenoid for 92 740
It's bad, plugged up or something. Transmission place says it needs to be replaced. They are not charging too much for the labor, but they say the part is $350.00 I checked FCP Groton auto parts and they have one for $100. I can easily replace it my self. That is still not cheap for something that is just a solenoid valve! Especially since there is no gaurantee that this will fix the problem with the car not going into overdrive. Any ideas? The local junkyards don't have one. > It's bad, plugged up or something. Transmission place says it needs to > be replaced.

I think I have one laying around still, I'll have to drop by my mom's place and see if it's still there. Ping me with your address and you can have it for the cost of postage. starting a scrap yard there James...are ya ?? > > It's bad, plugged up or something.

There's 10 Volvos in the family, I've been working on 240s and 740s for over a decade, and I hate to throw away good stuff. Lots of various parts have accumulated. If I get the tranny fixed with OD relay, I will probably need a few other parts later on, will make you a good deal on them. I have a constant ABS light on. I tried cleaning both ABS sensors, and also read their resistance at the connector to ABS. They were VERY dirty.....but ohms read OK. Still did not fix light. The light never is initially on, but it comes on after you have driven a few yards forward. I hear that the ABS has its own "computer" and codes that can be read out. My automotive knowlege definitely does not extend to the ABS system....but it is probably getting power as I have checked all the fuses behind ashtray.
