Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

It only took so long because my son was had the car at college. We were able to work on it during Christmas break. I should have replaced the latch mechanism sooner in my quest to fix the trunk light. I thought there was probably some type of switch in it for the trunk light but didn't get any ...

Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

Finally fixed! Had to replace the trunk latch assembly because it quit working. With the new latch in from a junk yard, the trunk light started working again. Also seems to have helped the remote fob to start work properly again too. Previously had problems with the unlock button on the fob ...

Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

I will check the red wire at the light. Then I guess I will move to the latch. I assume that if I remove it, there should be some wires connected to it somewhere? I'll go from there. Problem is I won't be able to get to it for a couple of days because he is driving it to school.

Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

No, the light didn't come on when I manually tried to turn it on. Also I asked my son and he said that the power lock does work for the trunk.

Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

Tonight I will try to check on the power to the light and check for broken wires. I will also check if it locks, I believe it does lock. If I don't get a chance to check these things tonight, I will post results when I do get a chance. Sometimes he doesn't get home until late and I'm ready for bed.

Re: 850 Trunk light won't work.

Yes, we've tried that one. Where is the switch that shuts it off when you close the trunk? I think that one is bad or stuck to the off position. I assume that there is a shutoff and that the trunk light doesn't stay on when you shut it.

850 Trunk light won't work.

My son's '95 850 sedan trunk light won't come on. I replaced the bulb before I realized that the old bulb was good. I suspect that the on/off switch when you open the trunk is bad, but I don't know where it is to test it. Can anyone help me with what to do to get the light working again? My son uses ...

Re: Question Putting C70 amp into a S70

It fits nicely under the seat. I put it facing the middle so the wires could run under the console up to the HU.

Re: Question Putting C70 amp into a S70

I turned it facing the middle so the wires can be run under the console up to the HU. I ran the ground wire to the back bolt for the seat. Fits just fine. When I get a chance, I'll post a picture.

Re: Question Putting C70 amp into a S70

Update: I actually only needed the 14 pin connector to finish the harness. The 400 watt amp works great under the passenger seat! Next step is to start installing my set of Dynaudio speakers in the S70. Going to junk yard today to pick some speakers. Will take them out of the mounting brackets like ...
