Hi All!
The wife-mobile (1998 S70 non-turbo) is having some electrical issues with a short somewhere (or something) that is draining the battery when the car is not ran in 3 days. I have already replaced the battery, so it's not that. The only other electrical issue is that the interior lights (by the rear view mirror, will not come on when the doors are opened. They will, however, turn on when you manually flip the switch. The lights in the footwells do turn on whenever the doors are opened though. I'm hoping that the 2 problems are related!
Any thoughts or ideas as to where to begin my quest??
