I would assume that the light and buzzer would be seperate so that if one went bad you would still have the other for a warning.. Did you check for power and ground at the buzzer itself while you had no air and engine running? | ||

   Posts: 366 | Volvo has had the buzzer built into the cluster since the VN truck came out. We have had to replace several clusters do to minor problems. You'll have to take to the dealer because they will have to reprogram it when they install it. | ||

Gonna have to do another one soon, the driver is having a fit because he can't hear his turn signals. OMG [ Edited Wed Jul 21 2010, 11:57AM ] | ||
