Volvo Repair: Reset dash lights, obd system, volvo glt


Question
Can I reset my ABS and SRS lights myself?  I had the engine out and now it is back in and the dash lights are on.  I have a 1995 850 Volvo GLT, non-turbo, automatic trans.
Thank you.

Answer
Reading codes
The on-board diagnostic (OBD) system is controlled by the sensor module under the driver's seat. The data link connector (DLC) consists of two linked units A and B located in the front right of the engine compartment.
FOR ABS USE A3, FOR SRS USE B5.

The data link connector (DLC) LED flashes out the code.
A code consists of a series of flashes with a short pause between each series.
Count the flashes and make a note of them.
Codes have the following structure

Each code consists of 3 figures.
Example: Code 2-3-1
Read off code as follows:
Digit 2 displayed with two flashes. There is then a pause and then the figure 3 is indicated by three flashes. After another pause 1 is indicated by one flash.
This code is written 2–3–1.

Erasing DTCs

The DTCs may be erased only when all have been displayed at least once and the first DTC has been repeated.
Press the test button for at least 5 seconds. The LED will light 3 seconds after the button has been released. Press the button again for at least 5 seconds.
