On my GF's S-40 the

SER-
VICE

Light is illuminated on the dash.

Owners Manual says that its a reminder (750hrs or 12months) and that it will stay on for 2 minutes after start until reset by the servicing retailer.

Well.....I don't know how to turn it off.

Any hints?

I think you need a "service light reset tool" to turn off the light. I know iPd sells one for the 850/70 seires, give them a call. Here is the one for the 850 model http://www.ipdusa.com/ProductsCat.as...564&RootID=629

You mean that there is no way for a Volvo owner to "reset" this idiot light? Other than buying a $200 tool???

Will it reset by itself after so many hours/restarts/miles?

There is def a way without buying the 200 dollar tool. Mine is on and hasn't gone off yet, and I've been driving with it on for like 3 weeks. It def has to be reset tho. I heard there is a button to do it somewhere, but I'm not sure where it is. I'm going to look all over the net tonight to find it and I'll post it if I have any luck.

Why not give iPd a call and ask if they know of a way to turn it off or if you need the tool, they will give you a straight answer

Thank you very much V70

Knew it had to be some combination of buttons or whatever. GM uses the throttle pedal in some of its resets.

what about older models such as an 87 740?

I have a '97 940 Wagon and you reset the service light by pressing a button in the dash. There is a rubber cover to the left of the trip meter. Remove it and push the button inside with a pen or small screwdriver. A mechanic friend of mine called Volvo to get the answer to that one.

you should get the car serviced. I had a S70 once when the service light came on i just ignored it.

Maybe if you turn the engine off the service lights will shut down...
