I got mine from Ebay, cost pennies.
Go to local Volvo dealer service counter and ask service advisor and they will copy you one for "free." I know this because that's what I just did today. Goodluck. Ron0629
i got mine for £10 each from the scrappy .
Look to the side of the main light cluster in the engine compartment, you should see a small clip holding the side light, bend this in carefully and the light just pulls out. I have replaced both of mine and it took about 10 minutes max. You can buy replacements on eBay for about $35 vs $100+ at the dealer. Re-use the little plastic vent caps to keep out moisture. My eBay lenses held up better in S Florida than the factory lenses.
You take off the panel that covers the speaker. Then you pull out the speaker. Then you reach in and turn the socket of the bulb and it will come out. When you take them out I always put a mark on which side was facing me so it is easier to put it back in. It can be a pain but you should be able to do it.
The brake light switch is up underneath near/connected to your brake pedal arm. Also, don't rule out that you simply have a bad bulb or corroded connection possibly causing the issue. If it is a bad bulb, see sources and related links below for bulb information.
unscrew the two hex scres in the middle of the consoule take off the ashtray and cover for the fuses there will be a clip get a small screwdriver to pry the clip off and then you can remvoe the panle and there will be a small bulb that you can replace under the shifter
Volvo 940s do not have PVC valves. They do however have positive crankcase ventilation. Non torbo models have a flame trap that can clog, cause excessive crankcase pressure and blow out the oil seals. The flame trap should be checked every oil change. Change to the new plastic one if you still have the old brass finned one. It clogs faster. It is smaller than a golf ball. It mounts atop a 1/2 inch hose comming up from the oil box on the engine under the intake manifold between #3 & #4 cylinders. It has a small hose out the side and a "Ball Cap" hose on top.
Common problem on 700 and 900 series volvos. The fuel pump relay begins to occasionaly fail after 10 years or so. The relay is located behind the change tray/cig. lighter... near all of the fuses. It is the tall white one, kind of to the drivers (left) side. Volvo charges about $85 US dollars for the relay. I got the same relay through an independent repair shop for $55. Good for another 10 years or so.
Unless it is broken or cracked it does not need to be replaced. At Walmart and I'm sure automotive stores there is a product ($20) that restores the lens. It comes in a package...includes two grades of sandpaper, a gritty compound and a sealer. It is amazing. Used it on my son's 1992 Subaru and my daughters 1989 Volvo. They are almost new and you can actually see at night now.
it is found on top of the gearbox on the drivers side on a left hand drive car. check the wiring and the sensor. and clean .

The transmission overdrive relay is locate behind the fuse box.
The fuse box is located behind the front ashtray.
To replace it:
Remove the ashtray
After you remove the ashtry, pull the cigarrete lighter out, pull the cover of the lighter out, remove two Philips screws and remove the box above the ashtray.
the overdrive relay will be the one on the second row,far right side
It's located inside the drivers area, just take out the front ashtray and the fuse box is behind it, the fuel relay is just up and to the rear of the fuse bax, it should be to the left had side of the relays and is white.
problem with emmission control, Check the Oxygen sensor
take off the hose from the turbo to intercooler and clean it .now clean hose from intercooler to inlet manafold. now you need a small hose into into right hand side ofthe intercooler push it down and see if any water mixed with oil is found and remove it .with pump you will get in a boat shop.i found this in my Volvo 940 turbo 1991 you must allso clean the crankcase breather common in most Volvo,s
I'm not 100% sure, but I would expect Volvo to keep them located in the same location and that would be in the Thermostat Housing. The part you would be looking for on your engine (where the thermostat is) would be screwed into it and have wires coming off it. This would be your Temp-sensor and is inexpensive to buy and easy to replace. Go to your local parts store to get.
Which one, the middle one or one of the two outside ones and is it the whole lamp or just the bulb you want to replace?
If a complete tune-up (with new ignition wires, plugs, air filter, cap, rotor) does not improve gas mileage, replace the coolant temperature sensor. The sensor is located under the intake manifold. Cost is about $39.00. Check the shape of the wiring socket to make sure you get the right sensor.
Older rear-wheel drive Volvos eat front brake pads. In city driving, I would average 20 - 25,000 miles max on the fronts. Since most of the effort is on the front brakes, the rear pads last significantly longer. I've had 4 Volvos, 240, (2) 740s and a 940 (current) The rear pads will get 100k. If you car is about 100k mileage and you're doing the front, I'd recommend doing the rears too. I've had better life with ceramic pads, but they tend to squeal. Volvos dust badly also, and dust seals are not recommended. Eagle One makes an all-wheel cleaner for about $5.00 USD that works very well.
Call any official "Volvo" dealership with the VIN of the car.... the radio came from....Most important. They can pull from the data base from Volvo using the last 4-6 numbers of the VIN to get a four digit security number which you enter on the radio keypad and wahla music!! Note: When Pulling a radio from the junkyard don't forget the VIN from that junker or you wasted you time!
I believe that it is behind the ashtry below the fuses. I stumbled on the broken flasher cannister there.
depends on how many lines you are replacing?
at autozone they sell it by 8", 12", 20", 30", 40", 50", 60", then a 25' roll.
then there 4 different sizes like 3/16, 1/4, 1/8, 5/16.
for prices you can go to there website or stop in and ask. But for fitings for the master cylinder your on your own.
Hope this helps.
It is located behind the ashtray. You have to remove the ashtray and you will see a bunch of relays in there. you can then pull that tray out to access the relays easier.
After you remove the ashtry, pull the cover of the lighter, remove two Philips screws and remove the box above the ashtray.
the relay will be the one on the second row,far left side.
White smoke out of exhaust is usually indicitive of water or coolant in the combustion chanber/ chambers of the exhaust. Usually caused by a blown head gasket. A costly repair. clean pipes to and from intercooler and clean intercooler .and clean crankcase breather.
fuel intake hose is bad needs to be replaced
