Default start up problems '00 Volvo S80

I have problems starting my car after 2-3 start ups, I receive a message "start prevented try later" and the car will not start (turn over) immediately. After 1-2 minutes or several trys it will start up again. What does this mean and how can it be corrected?

Hi Renee,

As to your problem, it is probably the theft deterrent (immobiliser) that is interfering. I'm an 850 driver and am not knowledgeable on S80.

Also, this area is for new members' greetings, so make sure to post the same question in the S80 section; you'll receive accurate replies as to your problem.

Cheers,


JPN
