Turn off the service airbag light 2006 volvo s40.

The SRS light is an item that must be reset by the dealer. Usually, there is a fault in the system that makes the light come on. Caution: Whenever this light is lit, the SRS is disabled. Consequently, the airbags will not deploy during an accident. Have the system checked out as there will be a code the system has stored in relation to the airbags, the crash sensor or something else. Be safe: Never work on the system with the battery connected, regardless of whether or not that light is lit!

We have a second hand 2005 volvo S40. I have had

Seems to me like a voltage meter would be a good place to start, to see just how much current is running through that wire. Check it in several key positions--off, on, starting, running. That should tell you a lot. It could be that power is being supplied at a time when it is not required. In which case, your ignition switch might be involved in the issue. Or a poor contact is making the wire act like an element instead of a conductor.

MAF Sensor Screws

Bosch MAF sensor? The two screws that hold the sensor in to the tube? These screws, if missing, will not allow unmetered air into the engine, so will not be the reason your light is coming on. What is making you think your light coming on has something to do with your missing screw? Do you have a fault code, or codes? If so, what do you have?

The computer says the immobilizer coil is open/short

Did you reset the computer. Usually disconnecting the battery for about 10 minutes should do it. If this does not fix it, you need to recheck your work. Something you did has caused the message. Did you short circut a wire, burn a fuse, forget to reconnect something? The immobilizer probably works by immobilization of the vehicle's coil circut. Thus, causing the computer message to display about the coil issue. Try reset computer of vehicle should work.

Coolant ran out of the bottom of the car. Nechanic found hose leak. Car is running rough while sitting. Could it be a Gasket?

if you haven't had any coolant in your car for a week and you have been driving it you may have blown your head gasket, even though you haven't got 'milkey goo' on your oil dip stick. check for goo under your oil cap to see and have it tested at a garage. but from what ive read im almost certain its your head gasket. hope this helps you and beware of the dangers of a running engine so keep hands and loose clothing out of the way of moving parts and engines get very hot so be careful what you touch.

My 1998 s40 volvo left side brake lights is not working but the bulb is good also the bulb holder is clean and no loose wires, i can't find a fault and also the dasboard shows a fault.

Fuses are a good bet. Otherwise might be a bad ground or loose wiring to bulb.
