In this video, you will see how to replace the rear light bulb on the Volvo V40: open the boot and locate a removable panel on the side where you need to work, which is wedged into the carpet lining. Once removed, you can access the back of the light unit by disconnecting the electrical connector and the bulb holder for the relevant bulb: stop, reverse, or indicator.

Always remember, when replacing the new bulb, not to touch the glass with bare hands, as this will significantly shorten its lifespan. Once the operation is complete, close the panel, and the job is done.
