    My dash lights turn off at night, not all just the switch light also I've noticed that ALL my gauges turn off sometimes, the truck will continue running but they turn off then they'll come pack on & keep working! I just bought this truck, it's an 06 w900l, with a C-15, 475 twin turbo cat engine! Any idea where to start looking for the problem?

    My 08 Ptb. did something similar. Turned out there was a computer for the dash I think it is called an ESA. Anyway it needed to be updated,it did clear up the problem. As I remember it took less than an hour @ Pete. I'd call Volvo and ask them.

    Had same issue with my 2010 W900, only gauges were not effected. Took her to the KW dealer they did an update to computer, problem solved.
