help my 56 plate FH has started to flash the trailer warning on the dash it seems only to occure with newish smitt cargobull trailers any ideas 
i presume you mean ABS warning light is coming on… i did read somewhere that volvo are aware of this problem and have a cure for it, so you are in their hands unless someone on here can shed more light… good luck

if your new trailer has LED lights all round, and the unit hasnt been set up to regonise it. what might be happening is that theyre is not enough amps being drawn from the unit to the trailer, and the unit thinks there is a light malfunction. alot of haulier get round this by adding a couple of normal side or rear marker lights, try to draw about 10amps, 4 small normal bulbs i think. 56 plate may just have slipped under the radar, newer than that would be pre set for it, and around 2006 volvo were offering ecu recallibration at a price, are boss found it cheaper to do the above method.
