Re: All instruments gone, then back

On that car there is no network for operational communication so ABS module could only kill speedometer. The oil service light coming on later would indicate the cluster powered up at that delayed time. Ignition switch, cluster connections, or internal fault like a broken solder point are on the lik...

Re: All instruments gone, then back

When I had a problem with the ignition switch, sometimes my car would start but none of the dials would work. I would start there. Try the old 'wiggle' test with the key to see if that makes a difference if the dash shuts down. I think the other guys have covered the other bases I would suggest. Goo...

On my '97 S90 I had to tap the key to get it to go all the way back to POS II after starting the car.
Try tapping the top back side of the key.

Re: All instruments gone, then back

I had a similar issue.
It was a wiring connector under the dash that plugged into the under dash fuse/relay box.

Re: ABS - is that normal?

If you stomped the breaks with your full force at speed, than yes perfectly normal no matter what tires or road conditions the ABS should kick in. If your stopping distance is long with working ABS during panic stop, that is tires or aftermarket pads, or a combination of the two. June

Re: How did I convince myself to do this?

Have a real good look at the recirc air door flap motor and plastic linkage while you have that HVAC out If you can buy it cheap new I would replace. They do break and are hard ( impossible?) to do in car. I learned something in this thread. The fresh air damper motor can easily be removed without ...
