Re: 2000 Volvo S40 Headlight Wipers

Thanks for the advice. I picked up a 12 dollar part and both wipers for 20 dollars and just fixed them. I guess for the wipers getting stuck periodically, I'll take your advice and just leave them. Thanks for all your help. I love this site.

Re: 2000 Volvo S40 Headlight Wipers

Thank you so much. Everyone is so helpful on this site. But to also answer your other question, the headlight wipers get stuck in the upright position only periodically. When I wash the windshield and then I get out of the car i notice that the wipers are stuck in the upright position. Then other ti...

Re: Radio

Sorry it took so long to reply back. Changing out those bulbs couldn't have been any easier. There is one problem though...After a few days of being changed and all of the lights being on in the car, the same bulbs don't work on the radio. Can anyone help me out with that?

Re: Radio

This is great news. The dealership told me that the whole unit had to be replaced. Now, where can I pick up these bulbs? Would I have to go to a honda dealership or is this something that I can pick up at an autoparts store?

Re: dashboard lights for heat control and radio

I had no choice but to go the dealership to have the lights fixed. I figured out how to get to the bulbs but couldn't seem to get the bulbs out so rather than break the entire unit that houses the bulbs I decided to break down and spend 100 dollars and have the bulbs replaced. Thanks for the help

dashboard lights for heat control and radio

Im new to the forum and saw that there was a lot of useful information on here. I have a 2000 Volvo S40 and the light for the heating control and the light for the upper right side of the radio are out. Can those be easily replaced or is this another money maker for the dealership? If someone could ...
