850 Headlights

MessageAuthor

Has anyone had issues with the headlights on 1994 Volvo 850 ..... I keep replacing the front right headlight over and over and then sometimes it will just come on, at will. Another friend of mine told me that he had the same problem with their 1996 850 Volvo.....and when taking it to the Volvo mechanic, they can't find anything. Advice.

I have figured out what the problem is, at least in my case. The fastener (the metal wire thing) that keeps the headlight bulb in place was loose and the bulb was free to move back and forth about 2 cm distance. If the metal part of the bulb is not in contact with the metal in the headlight assembly the bulb does not light up. It seems the metal-to-metal contact is vital to complete the circuit. Very elementary. :D Cheers Siggi
