Replacing the Glove Compartment Bulb

Model: Volvo V70 MK 2 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Light bulb

Open the glove compartment to access the bulb holder, remove the faulty bulb by simply pulling it out, and reinstall the new bulb. Choose a new replacement bulb identical to the one being replaced. LED bulbs of the tubular type are available on the market and are perfectly compatible with the old filament bulbs; in any case, the two bulbs are fully interchangeable without any modifications to the system. For LED bulbs, it is important to install them with the correct polarity. If the new bulb does not light up, rotate the bulb 180 degrees and reinstall it.
