The third-generation Volvo V70, also marketed as the Volvo XC70 in its raised, rugged variant, received a facelift in 2011, refining its design, comfort, and safety technologies. Produced through 2016, it remained a popular choice for those seeking a blend of utility, all-weather capability, and Scandinavian luxury.
NEED A REPLACEMENT?
Looking for the right fuse or relay?
Search common fuse types, fuse kits and relay options for your vehicle.
In this article, you will find fuse box diagrams for the Volvo V70 / XC70, covering model years 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016. These diagrams are essential for identifying the layout of fuses and relays used to power various electrical components throughout the vehicle.
What’s Included:
Fuse Box Diagrams – Detailed illustrations showing the configuration of fuses and relays for each year.
Fuse Panel Locations – Step-by-step guidance on where to locate fuse panels (e.g., under the dashboard, in the engine bay, or cargo area).
Fuse Assignments – A full listing of what each fuse and relay controls, useful for diagnosing and fixing electrical issues.
Whether you’re replacing a blown fuse or adding an aftermarket component, this guide will help you maintain the Volvo V70 / XC70 (2011–2016) with confidence and precision.
