Volvo S/V/C70 and 850 electric Power folding mirrors from Japan - Fix when not working and Service

Thank you for watching this video.
This is a brief video of explaining the failure points and fixes for the rare Japanese electric Powerfolding mirrors for the P80 850 (yes that is right they will fit 850’s) and 70series cars. Cars made between 1992 and 1999 (850 and S/V70) and up-to 2005 for the C70 (different mirror to what in video). It also explains on how these can be taken apart and serviced to replace the motor and grease parts.
Volvo Part numbers:
9484476/7 mirror assembly for the s/v70
9484481/2 mirror assembly for the c70 - this is not compatible with the s/v70
9459676 for the switch.
The parts used in this project are:
Metal hinge/fastener: amzn.eu/d/4yDejIA
Nuts for hinge/fastener: amzn.eu/d/id7qO1O

I've owned 850s for years, and didn't know power folding mirrors existed until today.

Sorry, just seen this comment! Yes they certainly exist. I only found out about 2 years ago or so. So glad I have them. C70 Will get them this year but is a little way down the priority list.

Brilliant. Can’t wait to see it on your car. 🍺

[@mattatkinson6604]

Thanks man. Much appreciated. They have already been on the car! Here is that video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/paann5WEq6pjm8k

Where what what O_O Now I want a set! And do you think we can add puddle lights, or even better have the schematics you made, miniaturized and built by PCBWay or similar PCB manufacturers?? These would be GOLD! Tempting to look up a similar way of retrofitting P2 or even P3 folding mirror on a P80. 3D print some mounts/brackets and have them metal printed as a part of a package from PCBWay. I need to know what you think!!!

[@mattatkinson6604]

I was thinking about the puddle lights… yes totally possible. I did have led’s going to the handles like a bmw… but they keep failing and there isn’t quite enough room for a bulb holder and led to replace them. But using a feed wire from the curtiousy light to the mirror would be fairly straight forward. My mirrors are maxed out with wires so wouldn’t be possible for me now unfortunately unless I rewired with a smaller gauge wire.

Also, the pcb way thing is an awesome an idea but I do not have the electrical engineering know how or terminology and component knowledge to make that work. The size of this new controller box will be a minor issue. Still need to fit to my car which I may do this weekend. Currently my v70 has one power folding mirror (with stock control). I have a c70 too which will get them next.

@@mattatkinson6604 there is a video on a turquoise S/V70 I found today as I also found your video, from a few years ago. That video shows folding mirrors with blinkers in them, so I wonder if there are more models. If so, what cabling is in those to maybe piggyback puddlelights. When it comes to redesigning the PCB you made, someone on something like Fiver or even stackoverflow could help with that. I have little knowledge myself, but there are programs that make it for you based on a general design. So if you have a technical paper on how it’s to be, the program can “build” it for you in the most effective way possible. Shouldn’t be hard😄 And if possible, you can have the design ready to go from the manufacturer.

Hello good morning, is there any of these available for sale?

[@mattatkinson6604]

Hi mate, none available from me personally. Apologise about that.
