Volvo Repair: check engine light, reset button, number 6


Question
how do i reset the check engine light i have a 1995 960 series ............and if so where is the reset button

Answer
Keache, you have to read the codes first.  Its on the firewall by the drivers strut.  Put the pin in number 2.  turn key on pos 2.  Hold the button for 5 seconds. count the flashes. Example 2-1-4.  after you have a code like that, hold the button again for 5 seconds.  it may be a different code like 2-3-2.  Do this until you get back to the first code.  Now hold the button for 10 seconds.  Wait until the light is a steady red.  Now hold it for another 10 seconds.  Light should be reset.  If not, then try again.  Also read the number  6 pin.  Roger
