S80 Power Windows Failure

Hi, I have a 2004 Volvo S80 with a gasoline engine, and the power windows have stopped working. All of them. Error is stored in the error memory. I'm suspecting a defective power window switch. Any ideas?

Hey, I had something similar happen in my S80. Check the power window switch. It's a common point of failure. Did you check the fuses?

Thanks! Good point about the fuses, I did check them and they seem fine. Is the power window switch hard to replace? How did you figure out it was the switch and not something else?

No problem. It wasn't too difficult, but I wasn't comfortable doing it myself. Symptoms were the same as yours, and a mechanic confirmed the switch was defective. I'd suggest getting it checked out at a workshop.

Appreciate the insight. Sounds like the workshop is the way to go. Diagnosis confirmed: faulty power window switch. Cost me 200€ to replace. Thanks!
