Volvo XC90 Jump Dead Battery
Просмотров 16 тыс.2 года назад
Batteries are not located in the engine compartment on Volvo XC90s. A different (but simple) approach can be used to jump the SUV without having to open the read battery compartment (located by the spare tire). Jumper cables will be connected from the good vehicle's battery and Frame to the Positive terminal (by the fuse box) and Frame of the XC90. This same process can be used if your XC90 is ...

The automatic lift gate on many large American vehicles is at risk of hitting the top of the garage ( or garage door). I found an easy and cheap solution to solve this problem and prevent any damage to the exterior paint finish.

Headlight assembly replacement [Volvo XC90 2006]

Easy replacement of the entire headlamp lens assembly. This job is something a beginner with a little mechanical aptitude could handle. I had to do this because my headlight quit working and even replacing the bulb would not fix the problem.

Replace Air Filter Volvo XC90 - 2006
We don’t need to hear unclear ideas guessing video ,just true review..
it's blinking on the camera screen because of a thing called refresh rate of screens
Thank you for your video! I was able to open the hood with little issue after my trusted service tech forgot to put back the hood release latch after our last service. Many laughs to be had, but glad we were able to get it open!
Omg! Wow! 😆
A video shot from the hip provides more valuable information, than sleeky produced video's on youtube lP
Thanks! I think people are often looking for answers- not sleek production. Great observation. 👍
You helped me help my neighbor in 5 minutes! 👍🏽👍🏽
Awesome! 😊
Does this interfere with your brake lights ???
Yes but those red marker lamps were purchased separately. And then wired into the trailer lights connector on the vehicle.
Thank you Sir. Didn’t wanted to start but charged it enough to open the trunk and access the battery. Once there I connected the cables directly and it started at once. Thanks again a lot.
Awesome!
What is the Grey part with wholes called, my light bulbs melted the plastic Grey part I need to replace it. Do I have to replace the whole rear thing.
Thanks, literally hit a deer today and the poor girl destroyed my whole light assembly. Part should be in, in a few days so this makes me more confident i can do this on my own. Hopefully it goes to plan
🎉 thanks
Thank you so SO MUCH!!! 🙏🙏
Thanks for this. Helped me make up my mind.
Fantastic video!! Thank you so much, saved me a tremendous amount of time trying to figure out why the hood wouldn't open after so many trouble-free years 🙂
Glad it helped.. it's always heart warming when ppl like you take the time to tell.me about your small victories. Those mid-2000 xc90s were incredible. Unfortunately, I had to part with my 2006 last year. Thanks for commenting 😊
Thank you so much
Where's location for blower relay ? Still searching 😅
Thank you for this video
It amazes me, that ALL auto makers continually fail at simple designs that have been perfected for decades. Steering wheels, windshields, seatbelts, door handles, accelerator or brake pedals, hood latches. It is bewildering how, in this case, Volvo (and others) have perfected the hood latch but a defective design is put on this vehicle. I really do not get it. Thanks for the video though!
Link for the led lights you attached to it?
These are the lights. amzn.to/3Jv8Ulr
I had to use this adapter on my Tahoe to convert from the flat connector to the barrel plug amzn.to/4b7WTOl
Thank you!!
Thanks a ton for this very helpful video.
Glad to help. 😊
Great video. You really helped me. Thanks.
Glad to hear it. Thanks for the feedback 😊
Looks like a moron designed it.
I have a Sta-rite 333 that starts up no problem but will only heat to 95° despite setting the unit at 101°. I tried manually turning the temperature up to 104°, still wouldn’t go past 95°. I’m frustrated as I just bought a new $3,000 pump. I had the same repairman take a look and he said there was rodent damage and the entire heater needed to be replaced. I can’t help but think it must be fixable, it turns on and heats to a certain extent! Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thank you! Sharing with you the other steps I added as I too had to mess with bonnet mechanism to pop the hood and would get angry. I lubed the mechanism arm, hook & clasp. Open and closed a few times after application and massaged in lube on clasp & hook. For now I don't need to push in clasp. Thank you!
Emphasize: Do NOT touch the bulb glass with your bare fingers. Clips. Those black plastic tabs clip the ring on the bulb to hold it in place.
This has just happened to me (owned the car 2 years, and it’s never happened before). Lifesaver thank you. I’ve just used some penetrating oil on the pivots and worked it back-and-forth a few times it seems to have freed it off. I’ll dismantle it and grease it properly at the weekend.
I am your 1000 sub, :)
That is wonderful! Thanks for watching 😀
I got the one with the digital psi read out, 99.98 at auto zone , hope I have the same luck. Good video , thanks ,subscribed.
Hope it works!
THANK YOU!!!! I also have pack rat issues. After replacing my igniter, my Sta-Rite still wouldn’t light up. I almost called a technician but decided to check univ. of RUclips first. I would’ve never considered the airflow as a problem, but my intake cover was also chewed so I tried your rock idea. OMFG, it actually works!!!! Thank you🎉
Wow, that is so excellent to hear!! Thanks for sharing! ☺
This video was a blessing for us today! After we tried to open the hood of this Volvo in -15 degrees Celsius (5°F) this video help Soo much. We got the lid open using long garden scissors, filled the washer fluid , and was back inside in the warmth. Thank you Soo much from Canada 🇨🇦!
aw, wonderful. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Stories like that are so rewarding! :-)
Thank you. Not a dead battery but a cold battery made weak by outdoor freezing temps. I'm hoping a jump will get it going but thank you first of all for the great video showing connections needed. Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for the comments! Lot's of misconceptions about battery jumping connections and Volvo's battery in the trunk just makes it more complicated.😄
Perfect!!! Was in Canada with wet snow falling and windshield washer empty……bought a gallon and couldn’t get the hood open. Looked this up at a stoplight and it worked fast. Got to the chalet and found some lube, all works great now! Couldn’t even check the oil and I wasn’t aware as this is vacation house car that gets little use. Saved me a trip to the garage!
That’s wonderful news! Isn’t it great when the internet and RUclips save the day? (BTW, had an old USGC buddy named Bob Sorenson) 😊
Thank you. My 2006 has exact same issue.
Apparently it is common 🤷♂️
Thank you very much. It did take some work to pry off the little tailgate handle panel. Both before and during my initial taps to punch through the rusty pin, I was spraying everything with WD-40. I suddenly realized that the latch and its spring mechanism were functioning again, returning to the lock position on its own. I decided to leave well enough alone since I will be removing the exterior handle again in the near future to mount a rear view camera into it. I reinstalled everything and sprayed the pin with white grease.
It's quite creative but read the owner's manual because you can adjust the height of the tailgate
Excellent. Great to know that. Thank you. 😊
Height of the tail gate! Never thought about it! Thanks for sharing.
Saved me
Wonderful. Thanks for sharing the feedback!! 😀
I have removed the center doing that assist to pop up the bonnet .now the bonnet won't open
Big thank you to @living common sense for his video. helped me immensely before I started this job. Check it out if you want to see the parts being disassembled in detail. ruclips.net/video/TiA3Qydc8Yw/видео.htmlsi=pjRdfiGMFotPml8Y
Probably would have used anything besides that bungee cord could have took an eye out looked like it had a lot of stress on it.
Thank you
The regulator pressure was at 35, but when the compressor shut off, it was measuring the tire pressure at about 24lbs. 2:29
Right... I kinda figured out later that slime bottle being in parallel with both the compressor and the tire was skewing the PSI Guage. Good catch. Thanks 😊
Heyy, is there anyway possible you could upload/help me with the passenger side latch.? I am able to unlatch the driver side but the passenger side just won’t release. Been down for 3-4 months. Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated it.! Thanks again.!
On that model (2006), there was only one latch. 🤔
Why not fix it ?
Oh, I did. I soaked the mechanism with WD40! 😄
Helps me out, definitely.
Glad to hear it! 😊
Good video - I had the same issue with the loose wire on the new assembly causing a tight fit. Also my connecter on the new assembly had trouble fitting in to the plug. This was solved by insuring the red locking slide was fully pulled up - I actually heard a little click when it fully opened. The other new assembly for the passenger side also had this issue. I then had no trouble with the install. Last point is that I am a bit miffed at myself that I did not do this sooner. I purchased the new headlight assembly for about $200 - including all bulbs. As a side note - my Volvo dealer wanted $500 installed. Considering I was considering paying $100 to have a body shop try to clean the lens which I have been told doesn't work that well - this was a great deal and the best way to solve the problem.
Awesome news. Yes, I tried cleaning 5he lens too and reached the same conclusion. It doesn't really work.
I had to change the 15A fuse for cigarette lighter / 12v sockets, located under the steering wheel. The cover needed a little downwards persuasion at 2:35, I used a small pry bar. It makes sense to check for spare fuses on the side panel (1:15), and also there's a fuse puller which is handy. This fuse is a mini version of the standard European auto fuse that I am familiar with on my 1991 SAAB.
Good to know. Had issues with mine I'll try again
I know this is an old video but maybe you can advise. Hood won’t unlock from the inside of the car so I can’t reach anything to open the hood. I don’t know what the problem is or how to fix it
Don't have any good suggestions except maybe get a can oft WD-40 with the little red nozzle tube on it and try spraying the general area where the latching mechanism is.
I have the newly upgraded 28W panel set from Big Blue. I use mine mostly for backpacking. I recently did a trip to Yellowstone where I spent 11 days in the backcountry, shooting video on my phone (1-2 hours per day), and charging my apple watch, my headlamp, my air matress pump, and my Zoleo GPS Comms. My battery bank is the Anker 20k. I generally can charge my phone from 50% to 80% in an hour from the battery via passthrough. During my trip we covered on average 10 miles a day. I hung the solar panel off the back of my bag, which didn't do much. When we arrived at camp I would find the biggest opening nearby and set it up for 2-3 hours before adjusting it again. I was able to finish my trip with ~50% battery life left. This was a daily charge on the phone and watch. Every 2-3 days I would top off my Zoleo and my headlamp. My air pump only had to be topped off once on day 6. I also used the air pump as a fire stoker. If you want to record, or spend 4k mah per day, this panel can semi-keep up. We did have 1 cloudy day, and I was still able to add ~8% to my bank. On a clear, hot, sunny day I can add as much as 30% to the battery pack. I used to carry to Anker 10k, but found that there wasn't enough overhead for charging with my older 1/2 the size panel. Combined they weigh 24 oz... but I have never worried about power since then. If I took a 0 day while out there I think I could charge the 20k battery bank by 40-50% in a day, maybe more. High elevations make for great charging! Great video. May i suggest that you invest in the mini-USB voltage meter? It would give you instant stats.
I want to thank you for providing such a detailed a d extremely informative comment. I'm sure many will benefit from your very specific information! 🙂🙏
Thank you to Save A Buck Pools for saving the Day! 😄 www.sabpools.com/
Did you have to use any kind of adhesive to keep them from falling off? This is exactly the solution I'm looking for!
Great question! I originally thought that would be the case (adhesive or tape), but they actually just stay on by friction. They have been on there for over a year now.
@@DriveTimeDIY this is great news! We're doing this today! Thanks so much!
What did you end up finding? Why was the Check Engine light on?
Hi Ray. Unfortunately the fuel filter didn't fix the issue. And actually a few months later, I ended up selling the xc90.
