Answer
Paul,
In the U.S. we do not have the 440 Volvo. My best guess would be since both components have been replaced then the wiring or the control unit is at fault. Follow the fault tracing that is set up for the fuel system you have. It should show how to use the breakout box and do a pin by pin connection test.
