Re: 1999 v70 Starting, battery, limp mode speedo problems

No engine light on now, it just turns over for a second or two before firing... seems like I have to give it gas to get it to fire up sometimes

Re: 1999 v70 Starting, battery, limp mode speedo problems

well i pulled the wires off the starter, cleaned everything, put it back together and resoldered the connections since i had the abs control out and open anyway and put it all back together as well. for the time being all lights are out, heres hoping that solved everything.
