I just checked to see if Volvo had any recall or Technical Service Bulletin regarding SRS for your car but there are none. The Control module is in the center console/ handbrake area. I have seen on other cars the module become damaged if coffee or soda has spilled on the module. What Volvo says makes sense to try to get the module to reprogram and if that fails replace it. The dealer will only replace it with a new module. Are there any independent Volvo specialist shops in your area that have Volvo compatible scantool and reprogramming equipment? If so there are several companies that refurbish SRS and ABS control modules for European cars that may be a cheaper alternative to the "new" Volvo module.
