Volvo Owners Club Forum - View Single Post - Brakes: 850: - ABS light, on and off when it feels like it.

Hi all,

My 1997 2.0 auto 850 is in for it's MOT tomorrow but the ABS light sometimes stays illuminated after start up, obviously this is going to be an MOT fail.

I haven't driven this 850 far, I got it without an MOT and have been repairing the few things it needs.

Does the ABS light go out once the car goes over a certain speed? Once off it seems to stay off for the rest of the day.

Any advice?
