2006 Volvo V70 Repair Question
Mileage: 11,300 miles.
Volvo V70 Abs Problem
Any advice would be appreciated. Love my Volvo and have worked around vehicles doing routine maintenance for 57 years but this has me baffled (I hate to admit it but ........)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Answer
you may have a a collar that will twist off to replace the bulb. However if you have the HID lights then this may be completely different. we have on charts to show how headlight is installed. And yes these can be a real painto change just a bulb.
here i did find a pic and have an arrow pointing on what to turn if yours is similar. then bulb will come out and it will either pull out or twist. this is not a hid setup also if a halogen bulb is installed DO NOT touch with your hand or fingers use a piece of cloth/tissue. Oil on hand will shorten the life of it.
Thanks hmac300
I am adding an image of what I see in the light well. I don't see unlock tab anywhere. ??
Thanks again

THE STRAIGHT DOWN THE TOP OF THE BULB REVEALS THREE SORTA EVENLY SPACED OUT TABS ONE BEING WIDER THAN THE OTHER TWO (SORTA AN INDEX FOR INSTALLATION)
I BELIEVE A FIRM CCW TWIST WOULD UNLOCK IT AND IT COULD BE REMOVED
'MEMBER NOT TO FINGER THE NEW BULB, AS YOUR SKIN OIL MAY CAUSE IT TO BLOW!
WANNA SEE SOME WILD GRASS CUTTIN'--BARELY CLEARING THE FENCE?
