Re: No power brakes in the morning

I'm willing to bet the brake vacuum switch is failing and causing the leak. It is attached to the brake booster and has two other vacuum lines coming off of it. We sell these like crazy, it is part number 30620958 for ch#685754- and up.

Hi my S40 chassis number is 001482 for 2003 S40 with B4204T4 ...

Re: 2003 Volvo S40 engine stops at idle speed

Problem was with intake hose. This hose is about 2" in diameter and is connected to air filter assembly. PCB containing sensor circuitary is located inside this hose. After replacing this hose with PCB, everything works fine. Thanks for all the suggestions.

My mechanic does not think it is ECM. He thought it is throttle body but replacing it did not resolve the problem. Vacuum lines are OK. He is still looking for problem.
