    It is normal behaviour from the Service Indicator, it will stay on for
    approx. a minute or so.

    A quick Google search for V70"Alarm requires service" only gets a few hits,
    most suggesting the siren is the problem. Apparently it's in the fender?

    And the "Service Indicator" should not be related at all, as that's the reminder
    that it's time to change the oil.

    Yeah, only got a few tips from googling and the bad news is that fuse No.38
    (5 amp) is ok! if it is the siren module then it looks like its going to
    stay broke a long long time...

    just to say i have just celebrated the 1st anniversary of this warning light
    ! comes on for about 15 secs every time and I'd probably miss it if it
    went!!!
