Yes, I have searched this and similar forums and everywhere else I could think of. I suppose I'm not most people - and I would prefer to sell this Volvo without warning lights on the dash - especially if I sell it to a private party. Its going to be an equal pain to explain all of this to a random person looking to purchase what is otherwise a very nice car. The whole thing is frustrating!

Then, be prepared to sink in hundreds and hundreds of dollars and time/effort for the job.
Or labor charges at dealer or indy shop.

Even so, there is no warranty that the light will go away.
Agree it is frustrating issue, otherwise a nice car.

That feature (anti-skid) IMHO, is close to worthless. So I live with the light (just push the button on the stalk to turn it off).

Also, prospective buyer(s) can be educated so they don't over-react.
A car at this age and mileage does not have much value anyway (< $5K)...
