1999 S70 Solid Up Arrow only in Drive and 3

Post by mitch944 »

Hi,

This post is a follow-up to my previous thread here:
https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums ... =1&t=72848

I completed the transmission swap, got a scanner and cleared the codes, and was able to drive the car!! I took it around the block a few times and up to about 30mph and everything seems to be working just fine!

The only potential issue is the up arrow, but now it is a solid arrow that only comes on in Drive and 3. Winter mode isn't on. The only code showing is P1113 which doesn't seem to be related. Does anybody know why the arrow would still be on but only in drive? Could it be low trans. fluid?

Up arrow will come on in 3, but shouldn't be on in D unless winter mode is on, so that's strange. Does it have all 4 gears in D?

I'm not sure, I haven't taken it fast enough to go up to 4th gear. It goes into 1st and 2nd just fine. I'll test it out tonight and report back here
