Post by boats »

I have a 1995 940 T wagon. The headlights do not work in low beam.

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

Have you checked fuses 19 & 20 and the bulbs/connectors?

If they are OK run a jumper lead from the battery + terminal to the connector on the headlight. Left headlight is a green wire and right is a green/white wire. You only need to touch the connector to see if the bulbs work. If they don't work check the earth (ground) connections which are located at the front of both fenders.

If these check OK you may be looking at a faulty bulb malfunction unit.
