    My sleeper fan switch just started to flash & the sleeper panel is making a beeping noise! My cb & lighter plugs stop working then they start up again! Anyone ever ran across this problem before?

    Volvos have a low voltage protector built into their system. It is part of the bunk control panel.When battery voltage drops below 12.2 volts the alarm goes of any many electric circuits shut down.Either the module is bad or the truck has some bad batteries.

    The voltage is reading 11.8 with all my chicken lights on & both front & rear AC going! I'll check the batteries tomorrow! The truck had been setting in the shop for 2 weeks!

    Sounds like your alternator is not putting out enough with all your lights on.With engine running with everything on alternator should put out at least 13.6 volts.

    I have 2006 Volvo 670 D12. I don't have electricity in my bunk - light is not working, only clock is working. First I had sleeper fan switch flashing. So I replaced all batteries and alternator. I checked all fuses, all are working. Is there anything else I need to check to fix this?? Thanks.
