V50 Air Con and Rear Ventilation Issue

Hey, my 2009 Volvo V50 with a gasoline engine is playing up. The air con is no longer cooling, and I'm getting an error stored about the rear ventilation flap. Seems like the climate control unit is malfunctioning too. Anyone else had this?

A 2009 Volvo V50 is experiencing issues with the air conditioning not cooling and an error related to the rear ventilation flap, suggesting a malfunction in the climate control unit.

I have a similar Volvo V50, and had something similar some time ago. Was the error code specifically related to a cable or plug connection being defective? It could affect air distribution to rear passengers.

Yeah, that's exactly what the report said – cable or plug connection. Did you manage to sort it yourself, or did you have to take it somewhere?

I ended up taking it to a workshop; diagnosing electrical gremlins without the right tools can be a real headache. Given it impacts the climate control, it's probably best to get it checked professionally.

Thanks. I suspected as much. Turns out it was a faulty connector, and the repair cost 95€. Appreciate the advice!
