I have a 2000 S70 non turbo with the ABS, BRAKE, and TRACS/STC symbol lite up on dash. I now have the mode "W" arrow flashing. I recently replaced my rear brakes and really need to replace the front pads. ABS and BRAKE is intermittent, however I under stand that that indicates a bad ABS module.

Thanks,
Mike

So, get your ABS module repaired. The brake light shouldn't be part of the ABS warning, so check the fluid level.
Either get new front brakes real soon or leave a 20 second cushion between you and the car up front, more if it is raining because your ABS isn't working.

Is the arrow flashing because my ABS is not working?

Yes. The speedo signal goes through the ABS module to the TCU; The speedo signal is not getting through and the TCU will go into limp home mode because it doesn't know how fast the car is going. Your instrument cluster speedo will soon go to zero also.
