Re: Problem with Electronics, Transmission, Not Sure

Thank you everybody. The Volvo is repaired minus an emission problem that is unrelated. The advice was completely accurate. The problem with starting the engine was due to two small vacuum lines (I assume that is what they are) that attach to the air cleaner housing and were reversed. After ...

Re: Problem with Electronics, Transmission, Not Sure

Help Again,

Re: Problem with Electronics, Transmission, Not Sure

I was able to remove the ABS unit by grinding the head off the screw using a dremmel tool but destroyed the unit in the process. Anyone have a cost effective suggestion on where to purchase a rebuilt unit? I'm already looking at eBay, Matty Moo, and Victor Rocha web sites. Also, what a reasonable ...

Re: Problem with Electronics, Transmission, Not Sure

Everyone, thank you for your suggestions and I will try them all until something works, starting with the cables and ending with the codes if need be. I will let you know how it goes.

Problem with Electronics, Transmission, Not Sure

I have a 1999 s70 non-turbo Volvo that started acting up.

First, as I was driving I noticed that the speedometer would stop registering, the digital read-out for mileage and trip miles on the the speedometer dial would disappear and instead show doted lines, and the abs and brake warning lights ...
