Hi All,

I am new here and have a slight problem with my V70 D5 facelift version on a 54 plate. When I purchased the car about 6 weeks ago the lights would not flash when you set the alarm but would flash twice when the alarm was unset. The dealer said no problem it is just an adjustment and we will sort it,which they did. It has been working fine until I replaced the battery and now it has gone back to not flashing when you set the alarm and flashing twice when you unset it.

Has anybody heard of this before and if so how do I adjust it to flash when I set the alarm.

I forgot to mention the alarm is setting correctly and the red LED is flashing to tell me the alarm is set and working. This problem is more annoying than anything else and if possible I would like to cure this without going to the Volvo dealership.

Thanks for reading,

V70 Owner.
