Default S80 Engine Management Warning light

All, My S80 S 2.4 Bi-Fuel (2002) has for the last few days been showing the amber coloured Engine Management Warning light.

It only seems to come on first thing in the morning on cold damp days, it then remains on all day. If the following day is slightly warmer then it goes out.

Anyone had a similar problem or know why this happens ?

The car is running fines without any probs.

Is there anything I need to check ?

I would start by having the codes pulled from the system.

Thanks for your reply Tech.

Can this only be done by a Volvo Dealer ?

How much will it cost ?

Some indy's have a scanner that will pull the codes. Also check with an Auto Zone or a Discount Auto Parts near you try to have them pull the codes.
