hi
i think youll find the 2nd hand part or new replacement needs to be programmed by the dealer,it wont work properly until its programmed,

had a similar problem on our past 2001 v70 when then heater fan would not work, so after checking fan motor etc I took the plunge and pulled out the control panel in the dash that has the fan control on it and tested it all to find nothing wrong so I plugged it back in and surprise it start working as normal and never failed again. so try plugin your original controller back in you may be lucky like I was. good luck
