Bulbs checked and all ok..wasnt a MOT faliure with blown bulb etc as bulb wasnt blown..its annoying thou...any help? Could bulb be on the way out? really annoying!

 

I'm having the same issue on my '01 S80.

 

Did some searching and found out there are 2 parking lights per side. My outside passenger light is out. Thank you Tech and of course Al Gore for inventing the internet.

 

I have similar problem with my s40t. When I start the car then press on the brake, the light comes on. At this time the right side brake light (and other lights within that side) do not work. After a few min of driving I go to press on the brake and the warning light goes out, the rear right side lamps work fine. I recently replace the far right side socket but I might need to replace the right side inner socket as well because I think it could be the connection. I bought the car used a few years ago and have about 94Kmiles at this time. The warning light will also come on out of nowhere when I'm driving where the light on the instrument [panel will come on then go out after a few min when I press on the brake pedel. It's just enough to be annoying at times. It all started last fall when I took my wife and son for a ride past my high school of years back. There is a road that has 2 sharp (even more sharp than that) turns.(and yes my "S" button was on in the s40) Of course I was re-living my "youth" driving the way I did back then pretending to be in my parents then new VW Scirocco. Anyway, my son enjoyed the ride unlike my wife who didn't. LOL. It was at this time I noticed the warning light on the instrument panel. I pulled over to the side of the road and checked to see if anything was not working. (I didn't have the owners manual in the car at the time so I didn't know what the warning light was for) When I went back into the car, started it and put in drive, the light went out. Now it does it occasionally. I checked the bulbs to make sure that they were secure along with the wire connection to the socket. I have another problem... with my 6 disk CD player in the trunk where it's not reading any of the CD's.(the CD's are actual purchased CD's and not homemade copies) The in dash radio says 0:00 and will not play anything but that's another topic. My S40 is fun/spirited to drive with the "S" button of course.
