Check pads, Check fluid level. Also check for proper battery voltage these cars do weird stuff with batteries on their way out.

SOURCE: dashboard red lights

I had the sames problems and was told it was my abs module. Mine was making a noise when I went over bumps on the left front. We replaced the rubber bushing on top of the strut spring and have driven 2500 miles and no lights have come on. This part was only $25.oo plus $45.00 labor to replace it..

SOURCE: message system reads "engine system maintenance required"

WHAT HAPPENED IS WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED YOU (RESET THE ENGINE MANAGEMENT COMPUTER) AND THE SERVICE LIGHT SHOULD GO OUT AFTER 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING

SOURCE: warning lights is on

Sounds like the instrument cluster has gone bad or a bulb in the cluster has burnt out. You will need to remove the cluster and check the bulbs to see if they need to be replaced.

SOURCE: volvo s80 1999 2.9 abs stc trac not working

having the same problem with my 1999 s80 2.9 . replaced the abs module twice and still get the brake failure warning. when the ignition key is turned there is a clicking sound from the center console beneath the shifter, then the brake failure warning, and the car will not start. (also after the last abs module replacement the car sometimes gets stuck in park).

Try removing the battery for half an hour or so and then reconnecting (check you have all your radio codes etc before you do this).

Location of my tcm on my Volvo xc90 awd 2.9

The Transmission Control Module (TCM) on a Volvo XC90 AWD 2.9 is located under the driver's side dash, attached to the underside of the steering column. It is mounted behind the steering wheel and can be accessed by removing the lower dashboard panel.

2005 volvo xc90 indicator warning symbols not working and text window not working and no head lights

Disconnect the battery for 15-20 minutes, then reconnect everything for a "hard reset". Next, I would suspect the instrument cluster may have gone bad if this does not make everything power up again. Also test battery voltage should be within the magic 12-13.5v range.

A 2004 chevy tahoe instrument cluster parking brake light is red,is that due to the overlay or a bulb

If your amber ABS lamp and the red "parking brake" warning lamp illuminate together without any prior pump constantly running problem; the pump motor wires are most likely broken.
The heat shrink tubing that seals the red/black power leads to the motor may have allowed water to enter. The copper conductor turns into a powdery green copper oxide over time due to electrolysis as a small current is applied to the motor all times (even when vehicle is off). The wires will look perfectly intact on the outside even though the copper conductor has been destroyed. The associated error codes will either be C0267 or C0268.
Initial problems will be an intermittent amber ABS and red BRAKE lamp illuminating simultaneously. Over time, the lamps will stay on constantly. In any of the circumstances, you have lost your ABS at all times... even when the lamps are off during the intermittent stage of the system failure.
Dealer specifies pump assembly must be replaced. Not necessary.
The wires can be resoldered to the motor terminal block and resealed with new heat shrink tubing and sensor safe silicone. Do not remove the motor from the pump housing as it is difficult to align the eccentric cam on the motor shaft with the pump mechanism.
This is a common problem that can be solved by resoldering the pump power leads. If the pump runs all the time and the red "BRAKE" lamp has illuminated after pulling the ABS fuse or unplugging the motor; the EBCM (ABS control module) will have to be rebuilt. This can be done for $100.
Both pump motor failure and EBCM failure can be repaired without costly replacement

Volvo xc90 2004 buzzing in steering wheel, clunck noise under car

that sounds like you are low on power steering fluid ... when the level gets low then the pump starts to ingest air and that produces a buzzing sound when you turn the wheel .....i would add or change the fluid and check for leaks and mechanical loosness in the under car linkages ...you can have that checked at your next oil change .
