- Here's how to set the headlight switch to get the high beams to stay on on these Volvo cars. Notice that the headlight switch can sometimes go bad - easy to replace • Volvo S60 V70 Headlig...
Dude you absolutely rock!
I’ve had my Volvo for months and just watched this video and now know that it’s not a problem with my car. I laughed so hard when I saw how easy this was. Thank you!!!
Cheers
Thank You. THANK you...I thought it was broken until I finally found your video. It was hard to find until I searched through Google versus CZcams. It WORKED!!! JUST BROUGHT A 2006 Volvo s40 and loving it
👍👍
Thank you! Just got a Volvo and was confused with the light switches on the left side and accidentally left my lights on! LOL but now I figured it out
Damn, do I feel stupid. Was having the bright lights (wont stay on) issue. Already purchased one (for $110) at the dealer, and replaced it and threw the old one away.Then having the problem again (and I'm pissed). This (dial) setting in the dash may have been the issue all along. Thank you for bringing this issue up here on CZcams.
Thanks for the fix. I just bought an 07 S40 and was having so much trouble figuring out how to get them to stay on
Embarrassing that I had to look this up. Thank you!
I feel so stupid thinking there was a switch or fuse was wrong or something. Thank you
You are the best! Thank you for posting what you found out. It helped me a lot!
Welcome!
just got a used volvo and was very confused. thank you sir.
Thanks for this, was about to order a new stalk and all 😂
Thank you 🙌 I’ve been trying to understand why the full beam won’t stay on for a while
Needed this video lmfao
Omg thank you so so much. I will keep finding you!!!! He's good guys. 💕
Thanks you helped me out completely!!!
Small update: the indicator light still doesn't work, yet the bulb is not burnt. It was working all times before I did turn the knob as in the video, and haven't worked since this video at all. I don't think the DIM has an issue, I rather think it's a software bug. Something went glitchy the moment the high beams stayed on.
Thanks bro u saved my Friday night
Cheers!
*light bulb goes on in my head* Thanks!
Me too
Again, this is how the high beams operate normally. The video presents a normal situation, it's just that the way Volvo designed this it's a bit confusing for some reason.
Thank you
welcome
Worked perfect. Whew.
I have a 2006 s60. I'm having trouble diagnosing something. Could I send you a video and yiu give me an idea what it is? Thank you in advance!
I suggest you try on forums such as www.volvoforums.org.uk or www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/
THANKS FOR THE FIX!!!
Welcome
I think you'll find that this is automatic. Volvo design is that it switches from high beam to low beam when required. I could be wrong but I have just bought an S60 which does the same and I was told by the dealer who sold it that it is automatic. Switch the switch to the normal headlight is now manual.
The active high beams are 2013+ models.
Wish I would have known this before I wigged out and pulled the stick back so far that I snapped the switch in half. Oh well, live and learn...$100 mistake.
Thanks!
Thanks, works similar on Opel Astra H classic.
I have the saturn version, pain in the butt in the USA to get parts they only made it one year
Thank you 👍🏼
tnx!
Why does my high been come on when my Volvo xc90 2004 is switched off and locked
ask forums www.volvoforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?s=2b05e20ba6140860c92fe360e1e5dfe2&f=7
on my V70 D5 the high beam does not stay on at all no matter which head light switch position you choose. I don't have daytime running light on my version but it still acts like one and the low beam runs all the time. Why is that ?
Even the LED lights are off on the switch. I tested the LEDs in the switch for continuity, they are ok and the 3 blue fuses are all continuity ok.
I am not aware if there is a different functioning mode, but I would make sure the headlight switch assembly works properly. These are known to fail sometimes. Not difficult to replace with a used one from breakers czcams.com/video/wKD-2aSxbog/video.html
Thank you for this. Do you know how to turn off the DRLs?
It can be done if you have the Vida software
That doesn't work on mine so i guess the switch is buggered
No this is not the solution.... I have same problem with my V50 ..., It used to say earlier, after I had my Xenon light turned pink.. liver doesn't say... You don't turn the knob while driving in night
For me is not working at all, no matter the position of light selector.
On early 2001-2003, the DIM can develop internal faults and that can cause the high beams not to lock on
That didn't fix the problem for me, it still stays off.
Try asking on forums www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=9
I suffer same problem, Did you solve it?
@@hameedalqashwi4884 No, it's a problem with some electronic component on the DIM unit. May try to remove the DIM and bring it to a TV repair place. If you remove the unit, have the car battery disconnected.
Good information, but the audio and your English is BAD!!!
And you are crazy
Thanks!
