Had two volvos first one went in the scrap yard due to anti-skid costing to much to find the problem now new car is volvo v50 2009 got the same problem anti-skid and gone into limp mode took it to auto electrician he's reset the sencor on the steering wheel and it's back on again I've already payed to fix this but still comes back carnt aford to keep wasting money on volvos common faults does anyone know the real problem so I get it fixed need some help thank you for reading

 

The first step is to scan the car with a compatible scanner - then develop a rational diagnostic process toward solving the codes that are stored. There are probably hundreds of things that can cause that message - so any ideas at this point would be a guess.

And how do you "reset the sensor on the steering wheel"? The steering angle sensor does not get un-set unless it breaks. Your service person may have deleted the codes which will turn the message off, until the next time a fault occurs. Erasing the code does not fix anything, but that's step #2. Step #3 is see what codes come back and then develop a rational diagnostic process toward solving the codes that are stored.

 

Where do you think best place to take it because I've had someone on it and they cheaked all the breaks and can't find anything and then went to auto electrician but need someone who knows what there doing really

 

Hi. Better get a VIDA DICE and scan it for fault codes. Prob... anti.skid and SAS (steering angel sensor) don`t work and the same with ABS. Get a VIDA 2014 that runs on a WIN/7 or VIDA up to 2016 that runs on WIN10.
