Volvo S80 SE/A 2.4 Diesel First reg'd March 2008.
Vehicle parked IN GARAGE for 7 days whilst on vacation. Returned started OK but the electronic handbrake failed to release. All attempts and following the manual failed to extinguish the H/ Brake light. Code displayed on dashboard. "Parking Brake service required". The fact is the Car has been serviced as schedule, and only done about 3000 miles maximum since last service. The voltage is fine as car starts on the button, so not preventing the release due to this fault.
Selecting gear car wants to drive in D and R but H/Brake button does not release Handbrake at all.
Has there been a recall for this car, as I suspect any fault such as this would entail a recall!.
Any help or if Brake can be released manually to get it to a main dealer would be appreciated.
