System reset as in disconnecting the battery? Yes, I've tried that. Cleared the code, but it returns after a short drive. Anything more involved?

I meant a more thorough diagnostic procedure. Since the fault code persists, I think you should see a qualified technician for a proper assessment. The issue might be more than a simple relay malfunction. Intermittent electrical problems are hard to diagnose without the right equipment. I advise against guessing at repairs, as it could make things worse. A defective control system can cause more harm than good.

Thanks for the input. You were right. The main relay in the ECU was faulty. 120€ later and it's running fine.

I encountered a similar situation with my old 2018 Volvo V90. Reduced engine power and error codes sound like ECU problems. Have you tried a system reset or any diagnostics beyond reading the error memory? Any other electrical issues?
