Please, what does an inverted y with green color in the middle of orange light means in an s40 1997? I guess it is lamba light.

Hello, Phillip -

Apparently the lit lamda warning light means there is a problem with the emissions system, indicating that the engine management system is no longer able to control the fuel mixture. It means you need to take your Volvo in for service.

Where is the ecu located? 2000 Volvo S40

An engine control unit (ECU), also known as power-train control module (PCM), or engine control module (ECM) is a type of electronic control unit that determines the amount of fuel, ignition timing and other parameters an internal combustion engine needs to keep running. It does this by reading values from multidimensional performance maps (so called LUTs), using input values (e.g. engine speed) calculated from signals coming from sensor devices monitoring the engine.

1998 volvos40 right hand off warning lights a triangle aupside down y shape what is this warning me about

It is sort of like the check engine light for the 2000 Volvo S40 and other Volvo Models. One of your sensors has most likely failed. You will need to connect and electronic tester to get the code to determine which component is faulty. Thanks for using Fixya.

Volvo s40 engine management system light staying on.Is there any thing I can check to cure problem and is it safe to drive.

It is probably safe to drive, but is also likely to be running in 'limp-in' mode which, at minimum, will be burning more fuel. Take the car to Autozone or a similar business for a free scan of the computer. Take care of any problems that will be disclosed and then have them erase the light. Hope this helps!
