What you're referring to is the infamous wiring harness that is frequently discussed here on the board. As bad as it looks at the plug it probably looks even worse in the black sheath it runs through. This is just a guess but do you have intermittant and inexplecable electrical problems? Are there somethings in your car that just don't work? It's all about the wiring harness. You can pick up a used one for around $150- from Dave Barton's website or a bit more new from FCP Groton or IPD. The process is not outrageously difficult and you can read more aobut it in previous posts. There have been 3 or four of these discussions within the last few days. Some will say it's o.k. to repair but even they will say it's better to replace. This is a typical 240 issue as Volvo decided to make these things biodegradable. As an environmental professional I can honestly say that there are certain things taht just should not be biodegradable and this is definitly one of them.
