Hi, yet another question guys, but my 940 is getting gradually sorted thanks to you!

I have an optional air con package fitted to my 940 turb0 estate (well i think its an option because:-

the air con and recirc switches are on a switch panel in the switch insert immediately to the left of the stearing wheel, NOT on the heater control panel.

This switch insert looks factory genuine and has a snow flake on the upper switch which illuminates purple/blue when pushed in and locks.

The lower switch has a recirc symbol on it and when pushed in illuminates orange/yellow - IT DOES NOT LOCK. When illuminated i can (I think) also hear a relay fire and release when i release the switch.

As thi switch is in NONE of the manuals I can find I need to know should the recirc switch lock (if so it looks like volvo gen only and damn expensive!) or should the lock be achieved by a relay that is defective..or am i totally missing the point here?

PS the aircon is also U/S but i can feel the comprssor load comming on and off the motor...

many thanks in advance...

Patrick
