Resetting the check engine light on a 2023 Volvo V60 might seem simple, but a reset without a proper repair can hide recurring faults and lead to more expensive failures. At Park Place Volvo, we recommend a full diagnostic before any reset: our OEM-grade scanners reveal pending codes, freeze-frame data, and root causes so the fix is permanent. We explain each code in plain language, show the parts and labor needed, and outline whether a battery replacement or charging-system service is required to prevent reoccurrence. Choosing dealer service delivers measurable benefits: certified technicians, genuine Volvo parts, factory calibration, and warranty protection for covered repairs. We also offer service financing to help you manage the expense, plus promotional pricing via our service specials. After repairs, we perform a controlled verification drive and reset only when all systems report normal operation — ensuring reliability and protecting your vehicle’s longevity.
