Re: Is my snowflake broken? V70-XC70 1998

Not sure if the numbers are still the same but when this system was introduced in the USA in 1993, the cut points were 36 deg and 17 deg. Any warmer than 36 or lower than 17 and it won't come on. It's to warn of imenent road icing, and by the time it gets down to 17, you know it's cold. Sounds like it's working properly. NEVER seen one fail, except if the clock/trip computer went dead.
