If the temperature gauge in an S40 isn't working, it could be due to a faulty temperature sensor, a broken wiring connection, or an issue with the gauge itself. Additionally, low coolant levels or a malfunctioning thermostat may also impact the gauge's function. Checking the sensor and wiring for damage or corrosion, as well as ensuring the cooling system is functioning properly, can help diagnose the problem. If these components are in good condition, the issue may lie within the instrument cluster itself.
The fuel gauge fuse for a Volvo S40 is typically located in the fuse box, which is usually found under the dashboard on the driver's side or in the engine compartment. You can refer to the owner's manual for the exact location and fuse number, as it can vary by model year. If the fuel gauge is not functioning, check the fuse to see if it needs to be replaced.
I posted pictures on the location and replacement of an ambient temp. sensor for a 2001 S40. Google "ambient temperature sensor location/replacement" or go to Matthew's Volvo site and search there.
Open the sunroof or put on the air con if no sunroof is fitted.
I'm not sure what you're asking, but if you mean that you are getting an OBD-II diagnostic code of P0128 from your Volvo S40, that code corresponds to a problem with coolant temperature. On a first generation Volvo s40 (99-04), this usually means that the thermostat or electronic coolant temperature sensor are malfuctioning or have failed.
Next to the thermostat. you will see it when you remove the hose

We had the same problem and we were told by the dealer that it was because the ambient temperature sensor was shorting out?!? Since we had that problem fixed we've also had the problem of our passenger-side headlight working intermittently and this morning both headlights wouldn't work.
Where is the radiator cap on a 2001 Volvo s40?
We had a light alignment problem on our 2007 S40 and they could not adjust due to the design of the head lights... The fix was to replace the left 2007 S40 head light with a 2008 S40 head light....
