Put the car on jack stands and remove the wheels. Locate the calipers and brake pads and remove the pins and clips from the calipers. Slide out the old brake pads and push the piston back to make room for the new pads and shims. Slide in the new pads and shims and put the pins, clips and cotter pins back in. The front and rear replacement process are very similar, but have different pads and shims.

1987 Volvo 240DL hard-wired rear lights can't figure out brake and tail light wires go?

Found the wiring diagram for where the colored wires go to connect to the bulb connectors, so I'm thinking my wiring to replace the circuit board is not correct. This is a 1987 Volvo 240dl. Can anyone offer any assistance? I tried following the circuit board as to where to place the wires, but it cannot be correct. If anyone has hard wired theirs, please advise.

How do you change the brake lights on your 1987 Volvo 760?

The real question is "how can a normal adult hand possibly change a brake, backup or signal light bulb?". I have found that correct arm angle is the key to success - failing that, a "handy" kid brother or sister.

It is the same as the brake reservoir. You should see a line heading from that to the clutch master cylinder. Cheers.


How do you check your brake booster on your 1987 Volvo 240?

To check the brake booster on your 1987 Volvo 240, start by turning off the engine and pumping the brake pedal several times to deplete any residual vacuum. Then, hold the brake pedal down and start the engine; the pedal should drop slightly as the booster engages. If it doesn't drop or you hear a hissing noise, the brake booster may be faulty. Additionally, inspect the vacuum hose for any cracks or leaks that could affect performance.

Why won't the heated seats work if the fuse isn't blown on a 1987 Volvo 240 DL?

Each heater is controlled by two switches in series: the manual switch on the e-brake console and the thermostat within the seat pad. Both must be closed in order for the switch light to be on and for the seat to heat. If the ambient temperature is above X, the thermostat will remain open and turning the manual switch on-off will have no effect. You can test the system in warm weather by placing a large bag of ice on the seat for about an hour. -Bob, 1986 Volvo 240DL wagon.
