Hi, The service light on my Volvo stays on only for about 0.2 miles of
first drive. Anytime I start the car, the light stays on for that short
distance of drive and then turns off. I tried what you showed. The light
did blink but it still is on. What does service light indicates? what kind
of service?? I just changed the Air and cabin filter, plugs, all four
shocks and flushed out the tranny then installed a new tranny filter.
Engine oil seemed good and not that old. I appreciate a little help. Thanks

My radio is completely out. Do you know how I would be able to somehow
reset it? I was told that a fuse may be blown out and that I may have to
have my radio completely taken out to replace the fuse.

abiectus says:

Thank you for the tip. Tried this on a 2000 S40 and your tip works on that
model as well.

Russell McGaffin says:

Thanks. I didn’t check the position of the trip meter.

a row. Works on my 99 S80

lights vanity mirror lights garage door opener and wireless key fob stoped

SamMilho says:

You know how I change the information in the onboard computer? Liters per
100km to km/l, for example?

Chris Ellison says:

thanks for the video! worked like a charm

MrMrsaleh97 says:

How about xc60 Does it go as well as the rest models

Russell McGaffin says:

I tried this method several times. I couldn’t get it to reset. I have a
2002 S80. Do you think it’s different for that year?

stonedwelshdude jones says:

my s40 2lt d service light is sill showing up after trying it, it flashes
when I press the trip but no beep when I take my finger off.is it because
its been chipped.thanks

FiEZ says:

Of course I’m gonna comment ! I appreciate your help to reduce the lights
in my dashboard LOL

selumbaa says:

izit work on volvo s60 2.0T 2003?

Kris Kasprzak says:

I’m guessing it will. The ’99 and ’01 are very similar mechanically.

pepper777777 says:

Will this work for a 1999 s80t-6 Love this channel! Thanks Kim

jmendoza784 says:

Helpful! Thank u

yuckuJackD says:

You can’t use a second hand rear-view mirror. It’s one-time-programmed to
the car and can’t be reprogrammed to another car. If there was a problem
with your glass (the lava effect), then use your own PCB inside the mirror
with the spare glass. There is a threat in matthewvolvosite about this.
Check it. (I can’t post links here)

Otar Porchxidze says:

thank’s bro,y’re briliant

jmaxbeat1 says:

Thanks for the video! I’ll try this.

Kris Kasprzak says:

I don’t think it;s different. Sometimes it takes me several tries as well.
You may need to have the trip counter on A–can’t remember.

dan lopez says:

Would you know how to reprogram the computer on this v3hicle I took off the
battery for more than 4 hours a d now the remote wont work.=(

ATRn5FDP says:

i suppose you wouldn’t know how to reset the actual message board on the
left side of the cluster gauges would ya, i installed a Alpine deck a year
or so ago and the SRS message has been on since cuz i didn’t disconnect the
battery when i installed the stereo

timothygobrien12345 says:

Thanks for making this so clear. Great video!

toriejane1 says:

thanks bud that helped alot..

klangvatn says:

Thanks a lot. It works also on the V70 2003. The only difference is that
after switching the ignition to pos 2, it takes not more than 4 seconds
before the yellow triangle starst flashing, and it’s time to release the
day trip button.

abutilee says:

thanx for sharing! i tried it on s80 D5 2004 model but it didn’t work. the
engine cant accelerate above 2500rpm too. i am wondering what will be the
problem.

Leo Ingolfsson says:

On my S80 2002 I did it like this; 1: key switch in 1 position and press
and hold the trip-meter. 2: Turn the ignition key to position 2, keeping
the trip-meter pressed. 3: If you keep an eye on the trip meter it will go
to zero and than after few sec it will show the previous value, 4: Then
release the trip meater button and a you should hear a beep. The important
part is to keep an eye on the trip meter and when the value changes, after
10 secs or so, then let go. Hope this helps

Kris Kasprzak says:

maybe related, but i had my ABS module fixed and to cancel the CEL (dont
laugh) but i had to disconnecct the battery and remove several fuses
related to the ABS–the replace and hook the battery up. I thought it was a
joke but worked. perhaps you may have to do the same?
