If it's a V70/S60/S80, it's 99% certain to be a leaky battery in the alarm siren which has destroyed the PCB. New siren is the only solution.

Just wondering if there is anyone who might be able to help me switch off the headlights as running lights anywhere near Durham/Newcastle Area
Thanks in advance

What car have you got Glen? I might be able to help, but not sure if it's a dealer only mod.

Hi Petey80 Its a S80 Lux, Just need to get the Headlamps turned off so it would leave the sidelights to run during the day if possible

I don't mind having a go if you like. I've found a video, made by Simon on the forum, on how to change the setting.

I could meet you in Durham on Monday after work if you like and see what I can do?

It's a tiny bit different on the S80 in question with it being newer than my car in the video.

The settings will be found in Diagnostics >Vehicle Communication >CEM (from the overhead vehicle diagram) >Advanced >Programming control module >Option 2, then choose from either option 1, 2 or 3.

You must then click the grainy VCT2000 diagram to the left of the lighting options to start the process.

That's great, thanks Simon
