i have s40 1999 volvo interior lights and stereo was not working but dash lights and headlightswhere fine, also i had car with cross on dash bottom rhs in orange on. replaced 10 amp fuse in main fuse box under the hood rhs. it is located in triple fuse holder. it seems hard to pry of but flat bladed screwdriver new fuse all lights working and orange warning light gone.
I think it may be an electrical issue but I think it's just a fuse. There are 2 fuses I would check. One of them is a 15 amp fuse inside the fuse panel inside the vehicle (see fuse layout below) and the other is a 40 amp fuse in the fuse panel under the hood of the vehicle in the engine compartment (see other picture below). I marked the fuses to check and hope this is the problem.
CHECK CRUISE CONTROL FUSE AND BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH, IF RADIO NOT FACTORY TYPE IF YOU HAVE DIFFERENT TYPE RADIO WITH MORE AMPS COULD BE OVERLOADING CIRCUIT CAUSING FUSE TO BLOW. LOOK IN OWNERS MANUAL IN DASH. SEE WHAT OTHER CIRCUIT SHARE SAME FUSE WITH RADIO.
There is fuse but it is a shared fuse called the "meter" fuse. If that was the problem then your turn/hazard lights and instrument cluster would not be working either. Could have a problem with the main switch or clockspring which allows signals to go thru moving contacts of steering wheel. Check to make sure the Cruise control actuator electrical connector up under the hood has not come loose or been left disconnected fromo prior repair.
I was browsing unsolved problems. If you still have the problem, I'll try to help you. But it's going to be awhile trying to communicate back and forth. First...Check the engine for spark. Take off a plug wire and stick a screw driver in the wire end and place the metal part of the screw driver next to something on the van that's metal. Have someone crank it over for just a second or two and see if a small spark jumps from the screw driver to the metal part. I'll check back for your answer.
internal lights in the radio, call your local stereo shop & asked them if they can send your radio out for repair. It may cost less just to let them replace the radio then a repair.
the cruise control has an ECU(electrocic control unit) which enables the car to keep moving considering the load and speed and slops too...so i don't think it should get disturbed by the stereo..
but anyway if it was doing so then you did gud.
while your buzzer doesn't work then get the electrical circuits checked and also check if while taking out stereo the sockets were loosened.. :)
