Points To Observe When Replacing The Control Module

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 12 other vehicles, including the 2014 Volvo XC90, 2013 Volvo XC90, 2012 Volvo XC90, 2011 Volvo XC90, and 2010 Volvo XC90. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:

Software can only be ordered when the control module is installed in the vehicle. VIDA (Volvo scan tool) reads off the new control module identity which is required to order the correct software.

CAUTION:

Wait two minutes after the ignition has been switched off. The main relay must be voltage-free before  the control module can be removed from the car. If the engine cooling fan runs on after the ignition has been switched off, wait until it stops. Then wait another two minutes.

CAUTION:

Always  check that the control module and control module box connector pins and sleeves are not bent or damaged. This may have caused the fault.
