I have a '96 850 with auto transmission. We have been having a problem for some time where after starting the ABS light stays on and the shiftlock does not release. When we shut the car off and start it again everything works fine.
The other day my wife had the problem and started driving and the blinkers also stopped working for a while.
Called the dealer yesterday and he said it could be some switch in the braking systems but they could research codes to find out. AFter having an alternator replaced last week I am broke....so I don't want to pay him a half hour labor to read the codes if I don't need to. The problem was happening before and after the alternator was replaced....the alternator was definitely putting out a low output.
After some reading I am suspecting the ignition switch. I haven't tried jiggling the key to see if that helps things or not. Anything else I can try to diagnose this?
