Volvo XC90: Maintenance and service / Replacing daytime running lights/front parking light bulbs

The daytime running light/parking light bulbs in the halogen headlights can be changed without the help of a workshop.

Before the bulbs can be replaced, the plastic covering over the headlight must be removed.

Before the lamp can be replaced, the rectangular headlight cover must be removed.

NOTE

Daytime running lights/parking lights are easier to reach if the high beam headlight bulbs are removed. The high beam headlights are mounted above and to the side of the daytime running lights/parking lights. Remove the high beam headlight bulb by turning the bulb holder upward and then pulling it straight out.

CAUTION

Never touch the bulb glass with your bare fingers. Grease and oils from your fingers vaporize in the heat and will leave a deposit on the reflector, which may damage it.
