V40: - Service light reset

Trakhat · Jul 10th, 2016, 02:16

Hi, I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere, but I can't find it.. V40 XS 1999 1.8. I have an OBDII bluetooth connector and scantool software, but it does not establish a connection? What do I need to access the codes etc. Any help greatly appreciated.

I'm 99 percent sure that the phase 1 cars can't have the service light reset without going to volvo or using specific vida / dice software, annoying as my 99 p1 has the service light up, has done for about 2 years, one day I'll get it sorted, although it's not a major thing as I know it's been serviced, it's just the ecu that isn't aware of it haha

Didn't work on a 1999 T4 when I needed it. Had to use Vol-FCR.

Brilliant, Thanks.
Hold odometer button, turn key to position 2, wait for it..... When service light starts to flash then let go of odometer button..
Perfect, light gone and has not resurfaced yet, Thanks.
