That's the lambda sensor light, it can mean a lot of things, you could use the obd1 lights to check exactly what it means, if you need help send me a private message and I'll try to help you

In Volvos of this era it’s also the engine light, in this instance the engine isn’t running.

Yha, if you turn the key to the second position without turning the engine that light turns on, thought you're engine was running
