My '03 XC70 has developed another electrical problem.
When I use the turn signals, the high beams often flash or come on. It seems to me like a symptom of a switch failing internally and in need of replacement, but I thought I'd ask before buying a new switch. I've looked at the switch replacement procedure, and it seems fairly simple.
At night, I have to remember to push the stalk towards the dashboard when using the turn signal to keep from annoying other drivers.
I did find a solution to one other quirk: A CD that won't eject. CDs will eject from the drive if the car is cold, but not once its warmed up.
