The Air Mass Meter depends on other parts to ensure a normal operating function. Bosch 2,4 fuel injection uses an intake air thermostat located inside a filter box that controls intake air temperature. A defective air box thermostat will cause air mass meter failure as a rule
This Mass Air Flow sensor is an updated version different from the original hot platinum wire style. It is like the later Volvo air mass meter sensor design and has an air intake temperature thermistor.
(A thermistor is a semiconductor type whose resistance strongly depends more on temperature than standard resistors).
The thermistor replaced Vintage hot platinum wire in an air mass meter.
While it may not look exactly like the old design part with the HOT WIRE, you just removed from your Volvo, it is a proper replacement that will function correctly.
