HiFriendOnly the left side (if the driver position is located at this side) or right side (the drive in the opposite side) will be work because the fog lamp must work only in one side - left or right (or other drivers will see both lamps as brake lights - and due to this reason, only the left one (your driver position is on the same side) is working. So, you can think "and about the right side, why is the reason the fog light has a power cord if this side doesn't work? So I will answer you: your Volvo car has a security system called VOLVO ACTIVE BRAKE LIGHTING (you can make a search with these words) which both "fog" lamps will be turned on at the same time of your brake lights in an emergency situation when you need to stop your car quickly and intensively. That's it, friend. I hope to have helped you with your question.
I would think it is a short in the turn signal switch but I wonder how it is getting power with the key switch off. I would unplug the switch and see if the lights go off. Could also be a short in the hazard switch.
turn the key switch to the run position and then turn the blinker on on the side thats freezeing and do a walk around the car checking the corosponding lights to the side that is on and froze. first check the bulb in the light thatis not on on the side that should be blinking. If thats not the problem then you have a bad ground on the system and you will probably have to add a ground wire to the side thats frozen but first check the bulbs!
According to the manual, that warning light will illuminate if a fault is detected. Normally, the SRS warning lamp should light up when the ignition key is turned to positions I, II or III and should go out after 7 seconds or when the engine is started.
· If the SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it comes on while you are driving, drive the car to the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for inspection as soon as possible.
I haven't tried this on my Volvo, but found it on a forum by googling "volvo turn off daytime running lights" (without the quotes.
Try the following sequence:
Turn the headlight switch to the middle position "parking light". Turn the ignition key in position II. Pull the turn signal lever towards you and hold it while turning the headlight switch to position 0.
Is there a switch on the left side of the dash that has a red lens and a wavy line across it? If so, you have a rear fog light switch and it has been activated, causing your brake lights to come on each time you turn your headlights on. Flip the switch and the rear lights should display only the parking lights with the headlights on.
