Reverse light wire location Topic is solved

Does anyone know on what connector under the dash is the +12 volt supply for the reverse lights located on a 2000 V70XC?

Thanks!

The rear lights on the 1999- models are controlled by a rear electronics module, not a conventional hot wire, switch, lamp System. You can find these diagrams on the web.

We have a legal agreement with Volvo to not host them here, but posting excerpts is fine

There is a hot wire, no REM on my 2000. It's a light blue wire in a red connector under the dash.

Barf,...pulled up the 2005 diagram by mistake

Sorry about that folks, nothing to see hear, move along, shows over....

OP...the wiring bundle through the left trunk hinge is a known weak spot for wiring failures on old P80s

I was looking for it so I could tap it for my auto dimming rear view mirror
