Interior lights don't work

MadAlicesDad · Jan 27th, 2019, 16:07

I got my new V60 today to replace one that got written off while parked.

While changing the interior lights for LEDs (as I had done on the other car) I broke a capless bulb while removing it. Although the interior lights were off, I suspect I may have shorted the filament when I used pliers to pull out the broken pieces, because now the interior lights (front and rear) won't work at all.
I've checked a couple of fuses that are linked to the interior lights, they are OK.

Any suggestions where to look next?

I used to have a Zafira that if it detected a fault in the lights (eg non-canbus LED) would shut down power to the circuit for 15 minutes. Does Volvo do similar?

Any help or suggestions would be very welcome.

Mike

There are three fuses linked to interior lights, I've just found the third one and it was blown.

My first thought was a fuse. Glad you got it sorted
