To the best of my knowledge Launch software cannot reset service indicators on Volvo pre 1999.  For as long as I can remember it has been that way.

Manual procedure:

 

Volvo manual reset for SRI (service reminder indicator)
Resetting the Service reminder indicator (SRI), model years -2001
The service reminder indicator (SRI)informs the driver that it is time for the car to be
serviced. The lamp remains lit for 120 seconds when the ignition is switched on.
Note!If the lamp flashes,it may be because one of the service parameters has not been
programmed.
Proceed as follows to reset the service reminder indicator (SRI): Ignition position I Press
and hold in the reset button for the trip odometer Ignition position II The service
reminder indicator (SRI)starts flashing when the reset button for the trip odometer has
been pressed for 10 seconds Release the reset button for the trip odometer within 5
seconds.The instrument gives an audible signal when resetting has succeeded.
Note!If the trip meter reset button is not released within 5 seconds the indicator is not

the only info I can find on idenifix saids:

1. Volvo 850 and S/V70 models, in the model years of 1996-1998, require the use of a Volvo-compatible scan tool to reset the maintenance reminder.

2. Specific software that will communicate with the instrument cluster is required.

 

thanks Eric. I'll give it a try next time.smile
