Hey, thanks for your advice - I appreciate it! I'll definitely check out the wiring and connectors. Unfortunately, I don't have the exact error codes just yet, but I plan on getting those read out when I take the car in for its next service. By the way, my last service was at 157,470 KM, so it's been a bit since I last checked in on these systems. I'll get those codes and let you know. Thanks again!

No problem at all! It's always good to share experiences. I'm curious to hear what those error codes might be. Just to mention, the mileage of your Volvo aligns with when I started having issues with mine (somewhere around 155,000 KM actually). Might just be a coincidence, but then again, you never know with cars! Keep us in the loop when you get those codes and remember, don't overlook checking out that wiring and connectors. Hoping it's nothing too serious and you'll get it sorted soon. Cheers!

Yeah, I was also thinking about the mileage - seems like the kind of time some issues would start cropping up. It’s interesting to hear your situation was quite similar. I'll definitely make sure to check the wiring and connectors like you said, and I won't fail to update you guys as soon as I get the error codes. Hopefully, it's something minor as you said. Thanks again for your help, I totally appreciate you taking your time to give me this advice. Cheers!

Hey there, I had a similar issue with my '06 Volvo S60. I've got some car experience, but I'm not the ulti car guru. I took it to my local garage and they found out that the problem was a defective cable connection to the lamp. I ended up paying about 180 Euro to get it fixed. Check your car's wiring and connectors. Could you share more precise info about the error codes your car is throwing? It would really help to give a more precise advice!
