2001 S80 T6 Blinker Bulb Replacement

Post by gigglybubble »

Can anyone tell me how to replace the front passenger blinker bulb? The only way I can see it is to remove the headlight but I hope there is an easier way.

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

This is from the owner's manual:
Front parking lights/direction indicators

· Switch off the ignition.
· Open the hood.
· Press down the retaining catch with a screwdriver and pull out the lamp housing.
· Press the retaining spring downward and pull the connector out of the lamp housing.
· Turn the bulb holder counterclockwise and remove it.
· Remove the defective bulb from the holder by first pressing it in slightly and then turning it counterclockwise.
· Install a new bulb in the holder and reinsert
the bulb and holder in the lamp housing.
· Press the connector onto the bulb holder.
· Switch on the ignition to test the bulb.
· Press the lamp housing back into place on the fender. Be sure it seats properly.
The illustration hasn't copied so if you want to see that go here and scroll to page 97.
