    I have a 2000 S80 and my message center says that I have a "placement lamp
    failure". I've looked at all of the lights on the car and can't find what
    the message is referring to. Any thoughts??

  2. I have the same problem but after driving a few more miles it corrects
    itself. Then after a few days have past it will come on again. Probably a
    loose ground connection somewhere.

    Thanks, mine behaves the same way. By the way, I have two license lights in
    the trunk lid which go out periodically. If I tap on the lid, they come on.
    This may be a hint.

    Have you taken the car to the dealer? It could be one of those dreaded computer
    downloads needed to correct your car.

    Cheers, Peter.
