The diagnoses outlined below are intended to serve only as guides to locate and temporarily correct
minor faults. Causes of unsatisfactory performance should be investigated and corrected by your Volvo
dealer only. See section "Road Assistance".

start
The instructions for starting the engine have not been followed, see page 4:5.

Weak battery or dead cell
With the starting (ignition) switch in the "Driving" or "On" position, check to see if the warning lights
on the dashboard come on and if they stay on when the starter is engaged. If the lights do not come on or
if they go off when the starter is engaged the battery is discharged, or see below.

Check all the electrical connections to the starter motor and battery.
Clean or replace battery terminals if necessary.
The ground strap should also be checked for looseness or corrosion.
Check the spark plugs (gap should be 0.7 mm), clean or replace if necessary.
