2000 S40 Climate Control Bulb Replacement

Post by bmw69man1 »

I have a 2000 S40 with 74k miles. The climate control backlight bulbs all seem to have gone out except 1. I have checked and only see instructions for 850 replacement. Could someone upload detailed instructions on how to remove the climate control and replace the bulbs.

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

To remove the panel see: S/V40 climate control

Once you get the panel out the bulbs are easy.

Thanks,

Do you know what the replacement bulb model is; if I have to buy it from volvo or if maybe radio shack has one that will fit the specs.

Looking at the diagram on VADIS I think the bulb and holder are complete so you may be visiting the dealer.
