Attempted overthrow of a 90 240 by it's own headlights

In case you're interested here are similar symptoms for a 960 with a bad battery cable
https://www.brickboard.com/FAQ/700-900/960_90Info.htm#DriveabilityRottenBatteryCables

As much as that article carries on to desribe how to repair or build your own battery cables, I think most of us would suggest going for a new pre-made cable. Battery cables are not created equal when it comes to quality and construction. It's sometimes hard to tell from the pictures. Genuine Volvo cables are well built, but can be expensive and many are no longer available. I'd prefer a good used Volvo one over half the aftermarket stuff I see.
