Cruise control will not activate 1998 v70 volve wagon

go to dealer

may be not connected.

Sounds like the hazard flasher switch has failed and needs to be replaced.

i also have a 99v70.
As i was driving the car home 2 days ago in cruise control. Suddenly the speedo dropped to '0'. The cruise control quit and the abs, upshift arrow, and check engine light came on. The solutions is the 'abs control unit' From Volvo; 870.00
from Advance; 256.00 w/ core exchange. Its fixed all those dash issues.good luck

The ABS system should be scanned to check where the problem is, however, the most common problem is in the control unit.

My 1999 Jag XJ8 did the same thing when the cruise control was activated (red button by the gear shift), but I wasn't actually using the cruise control. I deactivated the cruise control and the fail safe message no longer appears.

up above fuse box under driver side dash panel. Little silver drum looking things

try www.autozone.com to see if they have your car listed for diagrams pictures and step by step instructions if your car is not listed then try your local library they have all the car manuals and even copy them for you

Do you disc?

It means the switch is bad. It stands for disconnected. The contacts in the selector switch get bad over time. When it does it again jiggle the switch and it will go away. You will need to replace the swith to fix your problem

Brandonlo168,

The fuel filter can be located under the carpeted cargo storage floor at the rear of the wagon. Remove the four 10mm bolts, remove the cover. You will then see a removeable plate to the right just behind the rear passenger seat. Fuel filter can be seen through hole in hole. Replaced from underneath wagon. Be sure to make sure lines are fully inserted onto filter. Check for leaks. No smoking, extinguisher handy. Note arrow on filter for correct fuel flow.
