Best Answer

1.) Open the hood 2.) Look directly behind the headlight housing inside of the engine compartment

3.) There should be a black plug plugged into the back of the headlight. The back of the headlight should be a grey cone shaped object and should NOT come out i this process.

4.) There is a black ring around the plug which secures the plug onto the headlight housing, turn it counter clockwise to loosen it until it slides back behind the plug.

5.) Pull out the plug and the bulb should be attached to it. you should be able to pop it right out and put in a new one.

*NOTE: this might require a little coercion as 20 year old plastic parts tend to be a bit difficult. Volvo used pretty quality plastic parts on the 240 so you shouldn't worry too much about breaking anything but you should be careful as parts can be hard to find. Hope this helps, i own an 89' 240 dl sedan so it should be the same as yours.
