All other marker lights are working. installed Sylvania 1157A bulb, and the bulbs i removed were marked with 1157A.

Turn Signal Issues 03 S60 T5

All, I have just replaced both front indicator/running lights on my 03 S60 T5. The lights come on, but will not flash, after replacement. Getting a fast clicking in the cabin when using turn signals. Passenger side was out, and driver side was working fine, but i replaced both. Anyone have any ideas

Re: Instrument Cluster Issues 03 S60

I have absolutely ZERO experience with a soldering iron. I was planning on removing the DIM and checking for the glaringly obvious (with the supervision of someone with circuit board/soldering experience). I did find a place that will inspect the DIM for issues for free, then they'll hit me with a q...

Re: Instrument Cluster Issues 03 S60

Much appreciated! Looks like I'll be educating myself pulling it out this coming weekend.

Instrument Cluster Issues 03 s60

So I'm looking for a bit of advice. Yesterday I received the SRS Airbag urgent service message. Today on a 2 mile drive up the street, all of my gauges stopped working, parked the car for 10 minutes while doing some research, then started it back up and all gauges are functional. I'd really hate to ...

Re: After-market stereo

If you have the base HU-600 unit, I'd suggest a try for the HU-800. Used is under $50 at breakers, coupled with the 300W amp + cable it is a serious improvement, even with the base speakers (the premium door tweeters are easy install and worth the upgrade). I put a 2004 HU-800 in place of my 2003 H...

Re: 03 S60 T5 5 speed manual

I don't have any experience with timing belts, or working on volvo's in general. My friend that I bought the car from has nothing but great things to say about this mechanic. Maybe I can talk to him about the parts he's going to use to replace the timing belt. As for the water pump, I absolutely do ...

Re: 03 S60 T5 5 speed manual

So I've talked to the long term mechanic that's been dealing with my s60. He gave me a rough estimate of $600- $700 for replacing the timing belt. He also said that $700 would include all new belts and water pump. I plan to get this done shortly after the 1st of the year. I really appreciate everyon...

No it hasn't. I suppose I should look into getting it replaced. Dour you have an idea as to how much it would cost?
