XC70 Issues- Possibly the alternator?

Post by melmaclifeform »

Hey all- Another problem with my XC70 came up today-

As I was driving it started jerking, and in the DTC window it had two things that came up- Brake failure and stop safely. The ABS and BRAKE lights came on on the dash, and then the AC stopped working and the dashboard shut off.

I recently replaced the battery, but because of the lack of AC and the dashboard ceasing to function I figure it could be one of two things- the alternator or the ABS module, because of the similar errors in my S70s when the ABS module failed on it.

What do you guys here think it would be?
