Volvo Bl71 : How to turn it off please?

Service done but the grease monkeys can't work out how to turn it off....

Any advice welcomed

More information would help. What caused it to come on ? Does it indicate what to service ? It came on for a reason. Did the person doing the service work eliminate the problem that caused it to turn on ?

before we start you must follow these instructions carefully - battery isolator on, key in position 0, hazard light switch in off position, - turn on hazards - turn key to position 1 - turn off hazards - turn on hazards - turn key to position 0 - turn key to position 1 - turn off hazards - turn on hazards - turn key to position 0 - turn key to position 1 - now start the engine - wait NO more than 5 seconds to turn off the hazards - service light should now be out, if this does not work repeat whole procedure until it does, this can sometimes take 3 or 4 goes to work, good luck.

Service light comes on every 500 hours. Service has been done but the grease monkeys don't know how to turn it off.

Thank you for your help. After much digging, I found this How on earth do you manage to remember the sequence?

Will give it a try in the morning.

3M electrical tape over it is so much simpler.

Took three tries. Got there in the end.
