Car Forum / Volvo Cars / April 2004'94 960 service light
Is there an easy way to reset the service light that comes on every 10,000 miles? Thanks By taking the car in for service ;-) ... I think there is a reset switch behind that rubber dust cover on the instrument cluster, not sure if you have to take it out then press the button, or if you press the button through the cover... Never had to press it since our 960 is Volvo serviced each and every time, but this topic has come up, and I am pretty sure this is how you do it. > Is there an easy way to reset the service light that comes on every 10,000 > miles? > > Thanks > By taking the car in for service ;-) > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > > > Thanks My '87 760 requires the removal of the instrument cluster, then pushing the button right behind the speedo. How stupid, you have to remove the freakin' instrument cluster, I mean, how difficult would it have been to run a momentary switch to a concealed location on a Molex connector to a more accessible location. It should be written in your manual, at least it was in mine. It was an added sheet actually, I guess people were asking how to reset the thing and added an extra sheet for the user manual package, providing you have a manual!

Remove the under dash panel and reach up behind the IC and push the lever. > > By taking the car in for service ;-) > > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > Samila Racing > http://204.101.251.229/myronx19 thanks > You don't have to remove the IC.

I did it while I was picking up a coffee at Tim Hortons in the drive thru.... usually a 20 minute wait....(if you've never been to Tim Horton's to get a coffee, it is insane, people will wait in their cars for a LONG time to get a coffee) normally, I'd go inside to get a coffee, but walking with crutches and holding a coffee = spilt coffee. I found it easier on my '87 Volvo to do it this way, although later cars have different dashes, so I can't really suggest much on that.
