HELP... turning off message/warning lights
Car: Volvo S60, 2005.... My new but maybe soon-to-be old mechanic said he could "fix" the warning lights from staying on. He could not do it, apparently. I've already paid him a bunch of money to fix other things he found wrong -- some really were, but some I'm not sure. All I know is that those dashboard panel warning lights are still on. "Check Engine" "Brake Failure - stop carefully" "ABS" "Service Engine"... etc. They come on and off.

Now the new (?) guy says I'll need to take it to a Volvo dealer to get it fixed. l$$$$$$$$ OR, he says to get them to diagnose the problem and then come back and he'll fix it if I buy the parts (no labor charge)...

Can any of y'all help me???

 

hows the battery? had any issues with startup? car dying while running? low battery voltage warning?

you might need an alternator.
