Hi</P>


I have a 2000 v70 XC AWD automatic. I have had a problem that the ETS lamp and "engine" lamps illuminate and the car is almost undriveable. I removed the positive terminal of the battery in the hope that I would perform a "cntrl-alt-delete" on the engine management system . To my surprise it worked and the car was OK for 50kms but the problem is back. Off with the batterry terminal and another 50kms!</P>


Any ideas on both cause and repair</P>


All suggestions gratefully recieved.</P>

Chances are you have a communication problem in the ETM (electronic throttle module). Very common for that care. Will need replacement at the dealer</P>


Good luck<IMG src=smileys/smiley14.gif border="0"></P>
