Hi, does anyone know how to replace the bulb on the headlight switch and dimmer control on a 2001 s40?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you very much Bil. I was able to remove the assembly, but put it back because i couldn't move thr little side clips. Too cold and my fingers almost froze. But anyway, it seems i didn't explain myself to well, my headlight swith works fine and is lit. My issue is the dimmer and the fog light button do not light up when i turn the ignition on. So i was wondering if there's a separate bulb for them in that assembly and how to get to them.

Thanks

Looking at the wiring diagram there is only one bulb in that unit. I have never had one of those apart but, if they are like older Volvos, one bulb will spread its light to several switches using lighting tracks.

Thanks for your reply. The problem i find is that only the little green light onthe headlight switch is lit, the dimmer switch and fog light switch aren't lit hence my question if there are other bulbs in that assembly or it is just like that.

Mine has three on the back, but i can't find anywhere anything
That says exactly how many bulbs are there.
