When I start my 850 up the ABS and the tracs light stay lit and the headlamps wont work.
Doesn"t happen all time only after I"ve used the car for a long journey.
Anyone on here got any ideas of the possible cause of this problem??
Thanks in advance

possibly ignition barrel fault,
wiggle the key when you start the car,and see if it all goes out or off etc when you wiggle the key in the barrel.

As above, move the igntion key back a bit after you start the car and all be ok. Its the electric switch part on the back of the barrel, easy to change and cheap to.
