Thanks so much! Tired of continually paying shops to replace rear & front bulbs. Out of all the tutorial KZread videos, I think, Sir, your's are the best. Why? Because you're direct, concise, short but informative & they make sense to the layman (or laywoman in this case). Others I've seen are 9-12+ mins long, don't offer verbal "how-to's" while music plays in the background...lame, lame, lame. This particular video is the 2nd time I've referred to you & I appreciate your providing us with your understandable & to-the-point instructions. I have a stellar 2001 S60 & because my lights are in the on position, they fail more often than not. Plus from what I understand, Volvos/electrical issues often go hand in hand...sometimes even in the case of perpetually failing bulbs. Regardless of the reason, one can be changing break, tail, turning, etc. lights too many times....again, paying a shop to replace at way over-inflated costs. Thank you, thank you, thank you. All The Best---

No, I don't have a S40.

How long is it worth keeping a Volvo S 60 for. Mine has done over 100,000 miles but it’s getting a bit old now and I’ve had to replace something on the suspension recently because of some clunking noises. I’m not sure whether it’s worth it to keep spending.

Hello Mr. Robert, I have a 1999 Volvo S80. How I tell if a brake light switch is bad? I have replace the bulbs , but the brake lights do not work. The bar brake light does work and so does the tail lights. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Hello Robert, I have replaced the brake, turn, & tail lights several times but still have this symptom: the bulb failure lights on the dash when I brake and the side brake lights don't work, only the center brake light does. When I have the headlights on, whenever I brake and have the turn signal on, the turn signal and bulb failure on the dash flash at double speed. Do you know what this is a symptom of and how to fix it??

you can pull the light assembly and shake it out. Or you can try to fish it out with something with sticky tape on the end of it.

That is funny. Maybe it was re-badged incorrectly? Google some S80 and S60 pics if you wanna see the difference in the tail lights. The whole car looks quite different though too. Either way, no big deal. Take care!
