Help! Instrument Warning Lights Intermittently all Turn On and Loss of Power Steering?? 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Nathan on  Tue Dec 11 14:41 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hey Guys,

It been a few months since the last problem.

I have a 1995 Volvo 850 Turbo w/ 65K miles (auto trans)

This evening on the way to run an errand all the red/amber warning lights on my instrument cluster intermittently went on - for several moments.

This occurred several times - finally things settled down and I was able to make my errand run.

During this "happening" it seemed that I lost my power steering. However, the engine responded and upon acceleration the lights went back off. I don't believe my engine ever stalled.

I believe the incidents happened at low speed, but not at a stop.

Hmmmmm...serpentine accessory belt- No because everything was fine after a few moments.

Hmmm....Alternator? I hope not, just had one replaced 20K miles ago.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
